As mentioned in other episodes the engine is (1641cc air cooled) we installed that had actually been stored for many years and was purchased from
www.thevwenginecompany.com/
But testimony to the build quality as it hasn’t leaked any oil as well as run spot on, even with the stupidly large carburettors that we’ve stuck on temporarily.
Another company we have used for parts is the air called accessories. We highly recommend them. We also have some very cool wall art from them.

Awesome, great mix of old and new, pretty cool to see Vulture outline on the side, I’m sure it will look great with or without the lettering.

No worries 🤙

[@craigdodson7018]

As in the 1.8 20VT that they used to put in the seat Ibiza/Leon (well, everything). Power to weight ratio is going to be fun 👍

[@surreyautoworks]

That’s the one! Shore will be interesting 😳

[@user-yu6px4xp1u]

Very cool..have subscribed..I've hopefully got a reliant kitten turning up on Saturday...only an 850cc but was hoping to see if you've done much fiberglass work on previous episodes

[@surreyautoworks]

That sounds like an awesome project. We haven’t done much in the way of videoing fibreglass repairs, but I will make a note and add it into one in the future. 👍

[@user-yu6px4xp1u]

That would be great..thanks,I used to live in Surrey growing up...Wallington.. what grade sandpaper did you use for initial sanding down please..cheers,steve

[@surreyautoworks]

@@user-yu6px4xp1u I’ll get all the details and put up for you. 👍

[@user-yu6px4xp1u]

Thanks..would appreciate that..thank you so much

[@user-yu6px4xp1u]
