Such a nice MK1, you wouldn't think you'd have much to sort looking at the external pics.

Externally she isn't too bad but she uncovering some dirty secrets underneath :(

Oh well, will be worth it in the end!!

Love the colour! There is only one word for that… SWEEEETTT!

Looks like a good project as well. Loads to get stuck into. I'm really jealous of that one  :lol:

Good luck with everything mate

Good to see you're keeping her, and are cracking on with the restoration. Keep the updates coming - good to see another mk1 being saved.
