my new mk1 golf project

[mikinoz]

After a long drive home.... I can't wait to start modding it!!

This is great news. So where in Western Sydney will it be?

[TSIfan]

Penrith area..... It's still tidy.... Couple of little things I need to do but I'm being perdantic!!

It needs rims bad.... I bought it with the std wheels.... I bought doms zenders..... But I really want Fuchs or Simmons.... But I'll prob stick with the zenders!! Preeny has them at the min refurbing them!
But it's off to the paint shop first...

[mikinoz]

Your going to get the whole car sprayed? I'll call past once my mk1 is back on the rd and take a peek!

Just the roof (removing the racks), it has a bit of cancer in the hatch so ill get it fixed and painted.... And maybe the bonnet.... But it already getting out of hand!!

Other than the rust it's amazingly good!!

[mikinoz]

Send me a PM, I know where a sound hatch should be available in the mtns near me (saves welding). If you need odds and ends I have a bit of stuff kicking around home as well.

[TSIfan]

PM sent. That would be great!!

Yeah mate it's already getting plenty of love......

Paint shop next week. Some of the other bits and pieces I have got have arrived. Front visor will go on while it's at the paint shop, and my Porsche steering wheel is here and will go on this week. I think the painting is getting out of hand..... It's gone from roof and hatch respect to the full top half (from the body mould up) and at the rate it's going it will cop a full all over paint.... Lucky to have family members in the paint game!

May also have my hands on a special trim set, but the trim is so good in it now im unsure about doing that.....and I'm getting the dash redone while it's at the paint shop.

The grille is going back to single light, I bought a brand new AA grille badge for it this week for an extra euro touch!

Then I just have to decide on wheels once and for all!! I bought the turbo2 zenders off wabit (there at preenys getting repaired and mirror polished!) but I'm still thinking something different maybe...... Just don't know which I'm after.... Was thinking the cal-look.... But then the zenders won't fit in..... What are your thoughts guys?
