Totally.

What I should of mentioned was that the whole welding, car prep and paint took me 1 week working alone. I did two all nighters back to back as it was all the time I had. In hindsight, ludicrous.

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

I`ve always found working through the night is never advantageous imo as i always can see something i`ve missed when i go back over it! lol

Staggeringly the car is taxed and MOT'd :shocked:

4x new wheel bearings
4x new tyres
2x hand brake cables
2x new discs and pads (fronts in due course)
New antifreeze

Just can't drive it at the moment as, whilst being left alone in the garage, it's decided to developed a coolant sensor fault  of some sort after solving the fuel leak it developed about an hour after MOT. I'll get it sorted.

No time for it just now.

Might be up for sale shortly too
