My new favourite build thread to follow! I used to have an 8v Jetta gti the same colour as this.. Wish I'd never sold it!

Cheers for the kind words :) Have managed to do a bit more today, all taking a bit longer than planned, but I'm between jobs at the moment so it doesn't really matter :grin:

Cleaned up the arches to stonechip them;





Refurbed rear beam ready to be fitted;



Stonechip on arches, this is getting painted over in fresh Tornado red tomorrow;



Arch roller in place;



Result (yet to be sealed);



Hopefully get this all finished in next couple of days

Cheers

Just popped in for a cuppa mid electric window fitting so thought I'd stick a couple of pics up of todays progress;

A good friend popped round to sort out my engine loom, before;



After (wrapped and labelled) :)



Finished rolling and sealing the arches, then layed down some fresh Tornado red. Also fitted the brake compensator and all the new rear brake lines along with the Goodridge hoses. Tomorrow the Mk3 fuel tank can go in and I'll put the suspension and plastic arches back on, followed by the interior :)
