Hi All.......
I know its been ages but I eventually got my roof, looks good so far, but have to get it fitted next week .....then at long last I can start the work on the interior.

Just so you know.......(and maybe its old news by now) Newton Commercial are doing a MK1 Black carpet set from now on....they also do Mats/rear load area mats/bonnet felt/gear lever gaiter/ and the sound deadening kit.
The price of the carpet is £163.32 inc VAT and the sound deadening kit is free. Beats the scrapyard!!

Anywho.....I'll hopefully be posting pics soon of at least an "on the road golf"

Nice one Dave, I was trying to think who it was that was doing the mk1 carpets recently and I couldn't remember even though I posted the URL in this post ! 

Bit of a tip, when you get the hood fitted make sure that they do the guide ropes in the hood quite tight otherwise you'll keep get a flapping in your ears ! I had to get mine tightened up the other week as it was doing my head in but now I'm well happy with it. 

[daveydub]

Aahh......Cheers for that, I'll be sure to mention it next week. Really looking forward to getting it on the road soon.......weather is getting better every day!

Hey All,
Well a lil update......
New carpets should arrive next week incl underlay...(mmm new car smell!) Seats were pro cleaned yesterday, so again smell nice! Last will be the hood being fitted. Also fitted new.... oil+filter/plugs/air filter/fuel filter......but its still a bit missy every now and then...cant seem to get the points out from under the dizzy, is there a knack in removing them? just misses when you put full throttle on from idle and then its sweet again....not sure what it could be....so if anyone has any ideas?
Anyway here are the pics.....
