Good to see you still jump on here Big D.

Car look's awesome.

Different look with the euro front, bumper's, side & windscreen trim's & the US side markers.

Look's like you've got some side weather shield's on there too.

Post up some interior shot's if you get the chance too.

The previous pictures were on a hosting site that was shut down by my son.
Sorry!!

Thanks for all the compliments folks!

I was lucky to find a NOS Hella grille still in the original box (which I still have) when I was buying the parts to build the car. It had been in the guys closet for 15 years and finally decided he wasn't going to use it. $75 shipped to me.

The door window visors (weather shields) were new also, still in the original box.

Tim, I really like this forum. Everyone here seems to be very nice, unlike another website I frequent....

Here are some pics of the interior as requested and the car I started with...
and a few more. Not bad for a 48 year old kid.

Mate, I hope you're very proud of what you have achieved. That is one of the nicest, cleanest, simplest restored Mk1's i've ever seen.

Thanks!

My son says I'm to humble about what I have achieved with building the car.
I wanted to build a car like this for a long time.

Amazing what a bit of T-Cut can do!

Only joking, lovely looking resto and the gold wheels set off nicely against the paintwork!

Looks like you've done a top job bringing that one back from the dead!
