Mk1 project slow
Few pics then back to work
So got my mounts in order now
Want to get them to the coaters but waitin till I have a few more bits ready first
Found my new gti badges I bought years ok still need the volkswagon one
New lights from euro car parts
One has a bit of trimming to do on the lens, but there ok ish…
Also opened up a bag with this in, I thought I only kept an engine loom from the past but iv got another fuse box here plus some dash switches so il have a better look another time some ends are cut to but hey it's a start… Back to the grind

My aim today was to get the dual mass flywheel off and get the engine stand bracket bolted on so it would be ready for when I can borrow my mates hoist.
One of the bolt decided to shear.. It's usually the last one but this time it was the first..
I got the rest out then started to drill it out😳 3 drill bits later I gave up for today! I decided to just get the loom off and a few other bits before it got dark…
Its time I fitted a light in my own garage for a change… Ill do this soon so I can get busy….
Heres a before and after pic for the diary
Left it like this for now
I have a task getting this bolt out and there seems to be a lot of goop in the breathers so I can see this being a bigger job than I wanted😳
