My names Anton from Colchester in Essex. I have recently got hold of my first MK1, having previously owned lots of MK2's. The car was a barn find and I have had it for approx 2 and a half weeks. A quick pic..

If that's the transformation in 2.5 weeks then fair play to you!!
What's left to do on it? It looks tidy

I go to a fortnightly meet on a monday night at the toby if you guys fancy coming along?
Future plans - well, not many really. The drivers seat needs the usual bolstor repair, then I might treat it to a rebuild and respray over winter.

Alright chaps, Id be up for a meet and some advice, Ive just moved to Chelmsford and also acquired a mk1 cabby off a mate of mine. The engine seems to be pingink/pinking however and some advice off someone with more experience of these cars than me would be welcome. Hope to see some of you soon

Welcome to the club but please introduce yourself in the 'Newbie Section ' so we can greet you properly, rather than half way down someone else's post mate!
We'd like to know a little about you and a whole lot more about your Mk1!
