It just happens to be my fav mk 1 I've ever seen.
I think your both crazy ass nut jobs - but I like the looks of this. Keep it up lads!
Looking promising dudes! When's the nats on this year? If i hook in i might have the bad girl done and i'll drive down in a car worth showing this year..
Nats is in april I believe, although I'm not sure of the exact date even!Quote:

My car is nearly done now. Once it's painted, I'll get an exhaust made up, and take it for RWC, all being well come feburary, it'll be reg'd and everything. Then there will just be little things along the way that I have to fix/improve, but for now, it's nearly done!! :D:D
oh and you better get your act into gear then! the more mk 1's there the better! Wabit is also planning on debuting his cab there...
