Project Mk3 - Hull
« on: 28 October 2009, 09:18 »
Hi guys,
been looking over the forums for a while now and i thought it was time to actually introduce myself! im going to pick up my first golf gti mk3 this sunday from doncaster, not got pictures at the moment but she has a few rust spots, but as ive still got 5 months left on driving ban i thought why not take on a project!  :grin:
the only issues i saw when i went to view was the issue with rust on the arches, top of the rear door, boot lid (rust hole  :shocked:) and a small dent in the left wing, other then that it seems pretty good for £470!  :smiley:
ill try and get some pictures up for you guys soon

I would leave prep to an expert as that can effect finish more than anything!
