Thank you! It's definitely been a while and its finally time for the interior to get some love

[Black Mamba]

Thank you, Cynth! Im sure we will bump into one another sooner or later. Were overdue for a photoshoot after all

I'm usually fairly easy to spot, so Im sure will bump into eachother at some point. And yes we are way overdue for a photoshoot!!

Why in the wagon?

[Megaa Sparks]

Why in the wagon?

Both cars (Jetta and GTI) are in storage for the winter and will not be ready to make the trek in time.
Plus, the wagon is super comfs so I have no objections...

[Señor BigJuts]

Hi there

love the new steering wheel. Look forward to finally seeing the car this season.

[Matty Much]

[-EuroDub-]

Wasn't Tommy's wagon a stick?! I can't believe you never have man, you should just for the experience

The wagon was an Auto. If he wanted to learn to drive stick he could,I would let him learn on my car before the VRT and new trans go in.

[livinzlyfe]

WUT.

yea, I know. I suck.

nope. teach me in your car...oh wait.

then teach me! the trans is probably going to end up in my car anyway.

[Megaa Sparks]

Hi Andrew, long time no talk! How have you been?

hi dom

cant wait to see you at sowo!

Hi KT!
Cant wait to see you and Kiddie in May

Plans sounds and look legit. I want .:R seats sooo bad! Also where did you get the dipstick??

Thank you
The dip stick was purchased from gruvenparts

[sicknastymk4]

your plans look promising

[3lfk1ng]

Hello Dom!

I've been waiting for this new build thread to appear. I cannot wait to see those seats in your car (not quite as excited as you are I would assume). If ever you or Devin need anything else from SoCal, please don't hesitate to ask.

One of these days I will plan a trip to attend an EastCoast event. I'll let you guys know when that is, it definitely won't be this year; I just dumped $5.2k into Kate this month (Hint: non motor related), I'll make a worthy thread when the time comes.

Anyway...
I didn't see any talk about a VR6 swap in that first post.

[v8 killer]

that gti is sexy

[Loud]

Please pass along the knowledge and wisdom of instruction on that mk6 steering wheel install.

[LOW36]

Hi stranger.

[DBVeeDB]

Please pass along the knowledge and wisdom of instruction on that mk6 steering wheel install.

there is a thread that discusses it. for both mkv and mkvi airbag installs. Splines should match up fine, like stock. and wiring wise, you just need to swap connectors. Ideally the proper way to ensure proper deployment in the unfortunate event of a crash. gotta keep my dom's safe, so i will be reading int this more. watch this thread for updates.

Why no love for the wagon?!?!?!?! WTF. nobody said anything about it showing up stock.... . maybe we'll tow the gti with it. If vortex wants to chip in for a hidden hitch I ll take care of the trailer. the only reason the gti doesn't come along is because domo is a sleeping beauty. and cant stay awake. I would work through the nights to make sure the gti is ready

you dom

Kiddie. can you please bring numerous corgis to sowo? I want the wagon to be filled with them. Circus stylez kthnx.

stay tuned for more of the progress.

I came here, in hopes that you or anyone in this topic knew of Dom Mazzetti.

Unfortunately that's a no.

[projektmk1vr6]

I love tracer's

[EvolSonica]

Oh herro! Looks like you guys got a fair amount of snow!

[ericshell]

see you both at sowo!! btw you should bag the gti this year

[Clun9]

OMG, Kiddie has corgi's? I am a HUGE corgi fan. Unfortunately, living in an apartment prohibit me from obtaining a dozen or so. Wish I could make it to SOWO in my OEM 5LUT.

Dom, car needs to get put back together.

[BlackRadon]

is the fuse box still above your battery? looking interesting. I like your style sir!

you've got a build thread for it? wouldn't mind taking a gander.

Drew! Haha thank you very much once again for all of your help as it wouldn't have been possible without you. Now get out here to Chicago so we can show you around and enjoy a few shows as far a motor swap goes...I seem to not be able to hear the end of it I my current setup and with ending school in the next couple of months, these changes will have to suffice for the time being as some expenses are being allocated elsewhere. Im very excited to see Kate this summer as it sounds like you have a few new tricks up your sleeve as well

Hi stranger.

Hello there Mr. Panda

Oh herro! Looks like you guys got a fair amount of snow!

Gah, unfortuantely. This was one of the lighter winters, especially compared to last years but the picture of the wagon was taken on a day that we did get a few inches

see you both at sowo!! btw you should bag the gti this year

E.Shell! See you at sowo indeed. You may or may not find your camera missing at some point of the trip only to find it magically reappear later on in the weekend with countless hours of dom shenanigans on it...just saying

OMG, Kiddie has corgi's? I am a HUGE corgi fan. Unfortunately, living in an apartment prohibit me from obtaining a dozen or so. Wish I could make it to SOWO in my OEM 5LUT.

Dom, car needs to get put back together.

Tell me about it! As soon as the warmer weather begins to approach a bit closer I will do my best to start working on getting back on the road. As for corgis...you only live once and it sounds to me like you are in dire need of breaking some of the living establishment rules. Corgis>apt...youll just end up being that homeless person with 12 dogs but happy as a clam hahaha Worth it!

is the fuse box still above your battery? looking interesting. I like your style ma'am!

you've got a build thread for it? wouldn't mind taking a gander.

Fixed for you
As for a "build" thread, its not something I believe in unless the car is undergoing an extreme transformation where as in my case, it was only the eliminating and hiding of a few things here and there. The work was done last winter by the one and only DBVeeDB and this would be the thread to accompany it: http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...me-Summer-2011


*Again, thank you all for the kind and encouraging words in this thread!
