I am sure your father would of been proud of what you have achieved, well done.
I have looked around and found this

which is very similar to what you had in your picture.
It will look superb when it is all finished with paint.

First I bought original GTI brakes but afterwords I took G60brakes
Some damping stuff
Everything protected with bitumen.
This is how the color of the car will look like.
On day light you can see that the color looks more brighter. Itl looks more like a gold
Here is the shadow and you can see that the color is more like a green.
Now this is with flash. Very funny color
Without flash
However. My Gnoj is on the road for the last 1,5years.
You will see how it looks like now and this spring there are more brand nwe stuff to come on car Chears

Radio casset player got new LED light and some new parts so he can work properly…again
Afterwards only I can say is YOU CAN LIVE YOUR HAT ON
BEFORE/LATER
The rest of pictures from that period of time. This was taken on 4th of December 2010
Again here you can see how this paint is strange. When you change angle and brightness of light the paint change from darker to brighter

So I didnt want to paint it because the Sun would destroy it in very short period of time.
I took all kind cleaning stuff and start to clean untill I didnt get from dash clean water There were a lot of job to be done to clean all that dirty from last 33years
Dash after hard work cleaning
And so I did that hard cleaning… But than what? Dash was so old that even hard cleaning didnt helped to be as close as new
What to do now?
But than
accidentally. Silicon sprey. Antistatic. Its similar to paint and feed material.
Judge yourself. I tried to take off that what I have spread. But it dont disaper
Smashing, isnt it?
