Looking good mate, lots of welding, you must have a great welders tan.

Must have a very empty pocket now after buying all those hertiage panels.

Thanks all for the kind words

Not much tonight, just repairing the hole that was cut into the floor for the remote gearstick. This won't be required as its going back to a magic wand

Before

nice thread.
the mk4 rear panels fitted really well. are they the same roughly then there are no major changes in those pannels.
i live the idea of an 850 with 50bhp. That sounds awesome. i know how you feel with not watching TV at nights. i find my self stripping and rebuilding all the necesary engine and braking bits to get mine back on the road lol.
keep it up will be done very soon.
