Looking at the restoration on the '78, this should be a fine looking car once more.
Keep us updated with a few pics.

what year is that golf? your name suggests 79 which would tie in with the small rear lights - just? Except that rear panel is from a swallowtail - made in 74-75 and sold/registered in 75?
