    Yeah the air con was put in as an option the kit is from Volkswagen Texas has stickers all over it, it needs gas and the gas required is illegal now I believe. But I have been in a mk1 with a similar air con setup and it was rubbish.

                Mind me asking a question? When you used body filler to smooth out the engine bay, waht brand did you use, and do you think it matters what brand is used? For eg, to with stand heat, good adhesion etc. Thanks !

                    Some people say it matters the really only differences is how smooth and easy the filler is to apply, but im my case everything was plated and welded in the engine bay. Around the towers was spot welded, then i used fiberglass filler to finish the smoothing then a small amount of normal filler to smooth it out. Fiberglass filler is alot stronger than normal filler and will hold up against movement and wont just crack. That's the advantages but its a pain to work with, doubles the time of the job but worth it!! I used 3M filler and 3M fibreglass from supercheap.

                            What an amazing engine bay transformation. Really neat car, mate! I saw you post this on our Fast Fours & Rotaries FB page but I couldn't like or reply for some reason. You up for a magazine feature?
