MK1A restoration and overhaul project DJ

Post by harajuku-girl »

Image

Well i purchased this car last night for £400. (one on the right). awefull paint job i know! anyway i quite like the wheels, also has a strut brace and fensport shock and springs. rear archs need replacing but other than that its relativly rust free.

Im planning on a wide arch kit from woodsport andd an engine conversion.
Not set on the colour choice for the respray though. Something two tone more than likely.

Its growing on me, the more i look at it the more i like it.. but i think thats the reason for the low price because its a bit "wacky"
