I think I will have to okay your future purchases before they scupper any further work.

You know you love it really Jon………..          :redfaced:

Also been refurbing a few bits including the rear beam…….





Next up is the rear disc setup to clean and get ready to fit.

Cheers mate. It's moving along nicely now. Hadn't quite realised how much money I'd need to spend and I'm not finished yet    

Tell me about it mate.. modifying cars is the mother of all moneypits!  My tactic is not to think about it lol  

Spent a bit of time today cleaning up my MK3 rear calipers ready to fit up to the rear beam…..

Looking great so far mate, look forward to your next update!

Thought I would have a go at painting the rocker cover this morning. Years of crap and grease etc took a fair while to get off.

Not bad for a first attempt I thought  :redfaced:

Good work mate. Looks good!

Yes mate. I bought it from a company based in Bolton through Ebay. Great service. Won it on a Monday evening and it was with me on Wednesday morning.
