Just wanted to add that I'm not really too keen on giving her a full respray as i want to keep as much of the original paint as possible.
Might just re-spray the worst bits (bonnet, front wing, rear light panel and the larger rust scabs), as i know that if I get the paintwork and body 100% perfect I won't want to drive it!
Need to lower it a touch too. Got some coilovers waiting for fitting with some new bushes.
Lower profile wheels already lower it about 60mm or so, going to try -40mm on the coilies and see how that comes out.
Speaking of lower profile wheels, coupled with the 1.6gti gearbox it should get off the line like a little rocket haha

Didn't have the heart (or balls) to pull the tarp off the other 20 off wheels in the garage

Not too sure whether to fit the mim deep dish'ed on the mk1, or the ATS cups instead!
