ya the one in the back is in better shape ,its a 1980 series 2 big light inca silver.shell be done after the 77.
i have the chrome bumpers,series 1 gti steering wheel,chrome door handles,wing mirrors and 1/4 opening windows and la few other goodies hidden away for the 77 so im going to do her first.
will have lights in the shed at the weekend so ill get cracking at it then.
whay are you all saying leave it left,too much hassle or just the fact that it will still be worth the same money?

In terms of LHD to be honest its a difficult one. I was contemplating buying a LHD german import that was registered in the U.K and still had both german and UK plates. Looked cool!
In terms of insurance get yourself some classic insurance. they deal with a lot of foreign cars so it doesn't matter too much.
In terms of value i saw a 5dr LHD one very similar to this actually,sell for 5k.
For peace of mind give the insurance company a phone.

I didn't. Think of the insurance ,I'll give them a bell tomorrow.
I'll see what they say and make my mind up then,it would save a shed load of work and cash.

I've had two LHD mk1's and they sold without any problems to UK buyers.. Oh how I regret selling my US Spec rabbit sport truck (caddy).
