It'll be crazy with a 20VT in it, you might have to go for bigger wheels though, so the brakes to fit under and for it to get the power down.
If your keeping the worn paint patina try get some Ankor Wax. It's what the aircooled original/ratlookers use to preserve their original worn paintwork without any rust areas getting any worse. It gives a matt effect but would save her from rusting away. 8)

progress!!!
this is how it looked saturday morning
removed the old 1.1 suspension
got these bits of a 16v mk1 (g60 front brakes)
took the complete front suspension, uprated roll bars, polybushed, lower brace, g60 brakes, koni coilovers
also took off the entire rear beam, uprated roll bars, polybushed, koni coilovers
the car is now up on stands to swap the fuel tank and put in the 20vt.
i am getting all the suspension bits powder coated black ready to re fit.
i have the engine and box mounts but i am unsure how the gear linkage works????
do i use the mk4 selector???
