well to be honest mate, we don't have much spares in here (i mean in my rotten country ), i took the kafer/bettle's trim as a replacement for the body trim/list, than i paint it black, yes they were modified lil bit, (cut and bent)..you could do the same mate,
kafer/bettle body trim is the same size like golf,only longer or shorter(by length, not by width)..

as for the fitting,i took it from kafer too mate…

these are the stuff that i'm gonna put on her…got them mostly from ebay…


i bought 2 (used) dash dials, but havn't decided yet, which one i'mm gonna put in..







….

BTW...MERRY XMAS EVERYONE..

Use the silver one.

And where did you get both the clock sets from.

Merry Xmas to you too..

Cheers

nope..still no update with the motor mate, :wink: ,just still sitting on my garage..,oh in january says one of the ebay seller that i've been communicating with, there will be a new performance distributor in stock..so, i think i'm gonna buy it, and try to put it in..hopefully it will fit.. 8)

oh i think might named the car:
" genevieve" or "alice"…hows dat sound? :wink: or any ideas?i'm open for any opinion guys :wink:

Between the two alice sounds better

As cars are mostly addressed as feminine.
