mk1 16v project
![](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/uploads/pbextract/1081899/135.jpg)
once i took it to the bodyshop to get sprayed they pointed out so many things that needed doing to it i.e.
the roof had dents all over the place so i had to find a roof skin from somewhere and after a long struggle in trying to find somewhere that sells them i found out that crazy quiffs do them and it was actually quite cheap aswell.
also once i realised that i could do what i wanted to the car at the bodyshop i decided to go back to the origanl doors( with the origanl door handles) so i had to find them from somewhere
there was a huge crack on the passengers side where who ever had the car before must have put a new cill on it and didnt fit it properly, you can see the crack below

i could go on for hours about the things that were wrong with it that the people at the body shop had found, one of the worst was when they told me that they had to bare metal the whole car because they kept finding little rust spots underneath the paint work which is appparently quite common with cars of this age. anyway enough of me talking about this these are a few pics of my progress with it at the moment

one of the things that i am struggling to find so much is the scraper seal for the passengers side that allows for the chrome strip. if anyone knows anywhere to get them from or if anyone has one spare please could i have it lol i will pay good money for it cuz they are obselete and that is the only piece i need
