There's me building mine 28 years ago, almost finished!
Be proud of your VW Golf Mk1, it's very special!

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

@ Brad & early-1800, great that you guys are close by, are there local meets?
@ Brad.. sorry you probably already know the answer and unfortunately it is too rare to sell so will be keeping it.
Cheers
