Some progress in the last week.

* Think I've scored some bucket sidemounts on the cheap.
* A friend has sources in the trade and is investigating some cost price buckets.
* Same friend has a contact @ VW motorsport in the fatherland who is looking to see if they have any of the wheels still in the VWR warehouse.
* Sorted a Geniune NOS 80s VW Motorsport sunstrip.
* The car should be going up to the workshop one night this week so work can start in earnest.

You would've thought that with all the money Mr Shed spent on that, he would've swapped the wipers over to RHD.
