Preen will win this race - I almost ran out of money with the VR6 build

Damn, that's a shame.

You will get there Steph.

still watching you will have a sick mk1

[Stephy]

I hope so!!!!

Well - back to work.
I know some of you will be unhappy, but given my proper swallowtail was royally rotten, I stole the panel and had it grafted onto the back of my straight shell. (the other side has been completed)
Also, the pillars have been 100% fixed and we are now ready to weld up unwanted holes, grind off unwanted brackets and "dags" and patch up all the rust holes.

I think that is fantastic you've taken on so much extra work to preserve the swallow tail look. Great effort, now you just need the bonnet as well. People spend much more making knock off GTi's but i think this maybe the first time i've seen someone go for the rep swallow tail, great idea stephy

Thanks!! It's nice to know that some people like the idea!

I have the bonnet I had a genuine one, but it was very sick so i stole all the parts

I'm just making a car that I want - I'll see what the end result is when it's done (that's what usually happens with my cars!).
