??? I was talking about my old mk2 when I said that.

Thanks! The shell is pretty clean. Little bit of rust around the spare window wiper hole for left hand drives, on the lip the boot rubber seal goes on Small hole in the top of the drivers door, and some rust on the front valance. Apart from that i haven't seen much damage. All will be sorted and painted up nice.

Got a new rear light today because I noticed there was a small hole Covered in that red tape. That is all.

Whoops just bought some whims! I love German eBay. Pics when they show up at my door because their pictures are awful! Oh and they are Gottis!

Uh oh, those damn beautiful round pieces of metal strike again!

[LukeyBabes]

Yeah but they were a bargain!

[LukeyBabes]

Small update. This is why I bought a new light.



Shitty tape removed. How does this happen?



New light fitted.



Anyone know how to remove this bit of the glove box?



And the gotti wheels are proving a bit of a pain in the ass to organize a courier for.

[Jorge]

Nice man, going exactly how you planned!

[markshulikov]

[LukeyBabes]

Really looking forward to see how this turns out. That jetta has got so much potential, and i love your passat!!

Haven't really had many chances to be working on it. But managed to go down the unit after work today have give it a clean and drain out all the water that has collected in the footwell. Really surprised it started up so easily. Also went and ordered some tyres for the wheels. Gonna stick the 6 spoke things on for now but with smaller tyres. Since I want it on the road. Also managed to strip down the gottis and have a go at polishing the dishes. Might get away with just giving them a polish. But will prob end up doing it properly with hours and hours of sanding. lol. And I sorted out my headlight adjusters. Welded a nut on iut since the adjusters are impossible to get hold of.







Had a blast over with the jet wash.


And this is why I have had no time. Because this is my new job.

[Dwob]

what is your job!?
