Looking good, I like the wheels like that, all it needs now is a nice fresh DIY paint job :wink:
yeah, will be spraying it in about a months time if all goes to plan. It will be the second car Iv sprayed by then so it should turn out well. The maestros getting there. Its almost all in primer now so just need to order the paint and I'll see how it turns out

For this one I just need to catch the rust in time before it all goes into holes. The rear arches feel soft under the spats and i need a new tailgate and wing. Maybe 2 wings actually. But the rest is solid

Fitted new disks and pads as the garage it went to for an MOT put new pads on unevenly worn disks and they were squeeking like hell and ruined. All sorted now. Just need to sort the exhaust blow and i'll have one less annoying noise

Are both your cars from Lancashire? RRN and DHG are form there….Did you buy them in Scotlnd or Lancs? Just a coincidence?
Are you sure? I checked where my red one was from and it wasnt lancashire… I'll need to do it again. Both were bought in Scotland but I know the red ones from England

Well I knew it wasnt mint
![:|](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/themes/default/images/ocf_emoticons/mellow.png)
I was glad to see that the n/s inner wing is fine.
![](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/uploads/pbextract/1138883/DSCF1415.jpg)
Threw a set of decent wings on and they line up ok so atleast thats one hurdle out of the way.
![](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/uploads/pbextract/1138883/DSCF1433.jpg)
So, the to-do list:
o/s/f inner wing repairs
sill repairs on both sides
new rear inner/outer arches
new front panel
repair/replace tailgate
Repair o/s doors
etc etc etc
Then respray
To be ready for october 8O
No chance, but I need to try. It would be a shame to scrap.
