The girlfriend has spent some of the weekend cleaning and polishing it.
Given it a good check over
I removed bumpers, seats and grille before cleaning it.
I've fitted a alpine cd player, kenwood rear speakers and new spark plugs.
Ordered new timing belt kit, air filter, oil filter and wipers
Booked MOT for 2mor

It's going to be a keeper. Full service and timing belt kit are first on the list then tax.
A nicer interior and sort roof to window seals as leaking a bit
Then do some bodywork a few small rust bubbles and stone chips etc

I've not done anything to the cabby since the AGM weekend……….at the show got some side strips, nearside headlight surround and some missing clips.
I picked up a alfa 155 for some parts and came with a set of tsw vemon's on it Dee wants them for the golf………..going get them re-furb plus new tyres

A bargin if you manage to get them cleaned up. Was the car an import, as I don't remember white being a UK colour back in 1980? Thought they came in red, black, brown, sliver and met turquoise about that time. Remember lusting after one at the time before I could learn to drive and dreaming of a brown one with cream roof.
