I'm pleased to say Iv'e now finished stonechipping and Iv'e bought the paint for the underside, I'm hoping to apply it this weekend, I'll post some pics up when It's done.

No deadline, when It's done It's done, however long It may take!

I think Jamie means regarding the ITB's not the standard injection that's all. Keep up the good work, will be nice to see this when I get chance to come home again :(

and thanks for the support on mine

Just spent the best part of an hour reading through this thread. Loving this car!! And the colour is just amazing

I have always wanted a MK1, looking forward to seeing this complete!

Finished painting the front and rear inner wings and made another start on the filling and sanding in the engine bay.

Looking forward to getting the engine bay in primer :-D

Wow.

So good.

cracking work! its looking really good

Not long now :)

Not long now :)

Oh my!

Easily gonna be the best car on here.

Spent the last three weekends trying to get the engine bay as good as I possibly could, 90% of the filler Iv'e put on, has ended up in a pile of dust on the floor

I got to a point yesterday when I decided enough is enough! I could of applied filler for ever and a day and still not got it right.

First mist coats of primer, acid etch.

Then the high build primer, "was all that effort filling and sanding worth it"?

What a relief, this was the one job I wasn't confident doing, It doesn't even need sanding

Couple of coats of white primer tomorrow and jobs a good un

That looks SO fresh!
