A bit of an update on the MK2
decided not to go with the the acid dipping as the bodyshop advised me that the car didnt need it so its been partly blasted instead
I allways thought it was quite a good shell to start with but didnt realise it was as good as it is considering its neary 30 years old
going away to the blasters
Back from the blasters
The doner roof for the roof swap
a few bits ive had cleaned up too
More pics to follow of the floor when the bodyshop get the car onto the spit
