Today we sold the BPD Primer Cabrio to a local customer.
To recap, our Primers concept revolves around the concept that customers can purchase from us a solid platform on which they can base a project. Our Primers have been gone-through mechanically and in most cases all bodywork is free from rust, dings and dents. From here a customer simply needs to decide if they want us to continue on under their direction or if they'd prefer to take the car to finish on their own.
Our Cabrio customer is a busy family man who does not have the time to build this car to his desired spec, so he has enlisted us to carry on with the project. Our customer has chosen to repaint the car in its original black color and he has decided he'd prefer a 12v VR6 under the freshly-painted hood. Lucky for him we have a 52k-mile GTI VR6 driveline in stock and this, along with the same donor car's brakes and suspension, will be swapped into the 4-cylinder Cabrio. He also has a few twists and turns he wants to add to the build along the way, so this blog looks like it has a lot more life left in it.
We plan to begin the second part of the build soon after next weekend's Waterfest event. Please follow along with us and post comments if you wish.
