I will definitely be watching this! I love mk1's and this one definitely needs some love!
It deffinately needs some TLC lol its a long term project neways so dont mind.
Fair play to you for attacking such a project. Good luck with it all
Cheers man i think ill need luck with this one lol!
Yeah it is lol, i only had a quick feel earlia but on that pick it almost looks as thought theres 3 if you see what i mean? crazyness really im actually looking forward to attacking it with a knotted wheel to remove the paint and see whats lurking behind
Yeah see what you mean, take it that last layer is filler. I hate thet sort of thing, seen it loads over the years. Some people don't get that rust is like a cancer and need to be fully removed or it will never go away. Do you think you will need to brace the car up before chopping out the rot or is it not that bad?
I know man its rediculous you would not believe how much silicone and fibre glass i have found and in some of the most rediculous places, i mean what do people expect it to do cure the rust? Lol. I want to cut all of it out and gunna try and sorce genuine panels for quality and fit, obviously im not gunna get them all but can try. If you look at the pic theres 2 really tight together which is wat i pulled apart earlia and you can see the old red paint underneath, and then theres the third bit floating around but god knows what that is?!?! Have to wait and see i guess lol.
I think ill brace the door up anyway cus i havent got a great deal of confidence in the strengh that side at the mo.
