Progress pics of my 1983 LB5A golf with a PD130 conversion

So my last topic didn't really go very far so I thought I'd start a new one as it has come on so far since my last update!

Nice!   :thumbs:

I bet that will be great fun! I hope you've got plenty of spare front tyres to cope with 410 lbft though!!

Looks like you've got access to a good garage setup too with plenty of space to work around the car  :wub:

Did some work to a beam I had lying around and these were the results  image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg

Tucking 15x8.5 with plenty of room! The 10j BBS' should fill the arches pretty well 😜

Really nice. Are you going to do 2 tone? Or is it just how it looks at the moment.

Sent from a phone, please excuse all the medium steaks. Stupid autocorrect!!

That's just primer dude, if you make the primer whatever colour you're painting it then the paint will cover easier and you'll use less paint!

Ahh, yeah that makes sense. Although from the look of that rear shot, it would look awesome in 2 tone  :wub:

Wheels fit really well, will paint the last panels (epoxy primer on the wings) then the shell is basically done
