Been a while since my last post in here, been collecting some things and getting back into the mk1 swing after I sold my four door. Thought I'd start a thread up as I'll have a heap of questions to ask over the next few months. Have got most of the bits I want now, so the slow process of putting it all together is starting. It won't be a fast project, as my unis getting pretty full on this year, but will give me something to niggle away at on weekends.
starting with two stripped two doors, one of which I'm using and the other is heading to metal heaven as its has a pretty hefty side impact and been dodgily repaired
Plan was to respray the good shell, but after looking at most of the panels and the way the paint is coming up from under the layer of dirt it will be kept just as it is, with everything cleaned up and rustproofed. Still have some welding to do on the floorpans and a spot under the gutters but other than that the shell is pristine and super dry. will just have to spray a drivers door and a bonnet.
still not exactly sure on what direction i'll be heading with it but will update as progress occurs.
some snaps
Base.
plus some goodies
equals happy danny
