Finally my Campaign restoration continues..

Posted
Newbie

I picked up a poorly Mk1 GTI last year which is in the same pre-restoration condtion as yours, its been parked at work for a while and not run for over 5 years, so I am hoping to get it running soon before I start the resto!
Did you have any rust around the sunroof? if you did how did you treat it? this is the worst problem for my shell and was thinking of grinding off, using rust treatment and lead filling for a proper job or even cutting out the rust and welding a new peice of steel .
Cheers
