Just don't tell my mrs about those bank balance comments.
Thanks for the colour volkswarren, been on my mind.
Oh an this used to be my daily driver until the gearbox went bang
She's still in the garage awaiting a box (18months!)

for an early Mk1 those inner wings don't look too bad.. mine were as bad as that and managed to repair them myself (previously never welded)

I'd never seen a gti that colour before and I love it so it's gotta stay, real contrast with the red tartan interior….think it'll look well smart with a red surround grill too (which is what it came with)
At the moment she's gotta take a back burner to my black mk1 though as the mrs is gettin well peed at me havin 3 cars. just cant explain enough how rare the 79 is and I had to have ops: :twisted:
My 81
Gotta get the gearbox in, and fit 4 branch maifold, exhaust, sand down and spray the sunroof, and give some rust treatment.
Too many fingers and too many pies

There was a thread about that colour a week or so ago. Apparently its an imported car if its in that colour as it was never an option in the UK.
