It has also just dawned on me the fitting of the colour to what's going under the bonnet http://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/forum/index.php?page=topicview&id=chat%2Fmk1-golf-chat_2%2Ffuture-proof-mk1
Will be pulling it out tomorrow if the weather is good so will take some more pic's!

Gave him a bit of a clean inside and checked round the usual areas for rust or signs of filler and all seems well!
Whilst emptying him of spare parts the guy had included with him and found one of the boot lid's had the black plastic number plate trim and holder so cleaned and fitted that to Spawn straight awayAfter cleaning Spaz up a bit the sky turned grey so i figured time to pack him back away, but then remembered a couple of weeks ago when i was going to attempt todays effort, I opened the garage door and looked under the front and swore i spotted a new ish looking brake caliper!
So a quick choking of the wheels and whipped the front wheel off to find a brand new looking caliper with brand new pads in and new vented discs!
While doing this i looked up and saw new Red springs and the shocks looked good too! This was too cool! but it didnt end there!
After removing the new caliper to use on Spawn i noticed the sticker on the inside of the front wing, The bloomin wings are new!So here are a few pic's of him from today and with the borrowed brakes for Spawn and an overhaul of Spawns Carb on the cards for tomorrow to try and make the Thursday's NW meet He should be going in the workshop this week for full stripping! And here is Spawn with new trim
