Getting the rear window taken out and put into the spare one I have tomorrow. I'm going to have to get my act together now as it's a completely differet colour grey. 

Is that the boot window or the Side back window? If its the side, get lots of pics and post all the stuff needed! I need to do mine when I get back from my honeymoon! 

You're on your honeymoon and you're on the forum?

Why the hell aren't you bumping uglies!?

Has'nt this been painted yet!?

All in good time. I'm adding another shade of grey on Friday thanks to the bootlid.  Paint will happen, I'm settling for a gun metal grey me thinks, not too dark but not too light as to make it appear like it's primer.

Doubt it, but we will see nearer the time. It's quite a trek for me.

So let me begin with, I'm lucky to be alive! 

Today I took the valver to my friend's to get some major welding work done. I will let the pictures do the talking first:














 

So here's the deal. I'm scrapping it.

There is FAR too much welding work required to get this sorted. The outer silll came off no problem! The inner sill literally disintegrated when touching it. The driver's side floor started giving way as the rust was so bad that you could see the ground from inside the car!

We didn't even bother with the passenger side as that was worse than the driver's side. Each side was completely f**ked, and whoever had it beforemade a huge bodge job of it and covered it up with silicone and patched panels.

So now I'm car-less. Looks like I have no luck with MK3s.

You got the cash for another one? If so, with a bit of haggling:

Nope, got no spare money at the moment. Will have to wait for something, probably after I have started my new job.
