My 83 Gti set to get full restoration

Another update peeps and it's a good one. Had some more pics from the painters today, he's stone chipped the underneath with some decent stuff, rather than the stuff I used out of a rattle can :lol:   and I now finally have some colour :thumbs:

Stone chipped


Engine bay




Looking good! can't believe I was going to leave the underneath black








That's it for now peeps, hopefully have some more updates by the end of the week :thumbs:
