I think Shughey sells them doesn't he?

Not a great deal done today, built a complete new rear light loom, built the fuel pump looms in and windscreen washer pipe as i'll be using rear bottle for front screen

Two looms made in to one



Looms for pumps, washer pipe and earths run to the front for better grounding point and lots more tesa tape



Also bought this to salvage some parts from

Ordered a few bits and bobs yesterday and picked up a set of these



15x6 with brand new 175/50 hankooks, just need a clean up. They'll do for now so i can sell the bbs ra off of the car

When I scrolled down the pictures and saw the gold Golf Mk1 was thinking that looks to good to break then scrolled down a bit further then saw the front end See why it's being broken for parts now…

yea when i built it all them years ago the deal was when he sold it i'd buy it but that happened so had to buy my own and start again
