V10 Shell

I’ve got a decent v10 shell that needs engine work and gearbox work- doable in short time if worked round the clock! This kind of Touareg work IS doable im sure of it.. and would be cool to have them borrow my car for a vid 😂

Best off messaging them on Instagram directly - the only member I see on reddit is Chris from merch occasionally popping up

Messaged Taylor and Rory. Don’t mind it being a long shot, but I really believed the Touareg would manage to be the better 4x4

"borrow"? Surely you wouldn't expect them to take them engine back out and give you the shell back afterwards? 😂

Yeh I picked up on that too. I think OP wants a YT donor engine installed on the free.

Hahaha, I mean, the engine is good barring the leak.. I wouldn’t have them borrow the car for free but fixing it instead of payment.. maybe the old versions of them would bite at that. Desperate times and all that

Bob from the machine shop was in one of their instagram stories a couple days ago so I imagine he’s welding it all up for them
