Nice to see some progress!

First coat going on tomorrow

Wicked! Will look amazing in black. Still interested in buying it actually...

You should keep it dude, stick the engine in that?

Good progress guy :) paint it fjord blue and I'll buy it off you :)

Deal Harris

Max everyone keeps suggesting that, what's so wrong with my mk2?

This car was always just about saving a polo, getting more experience in body work and making a bit of cash on top. Any money that comes my way from this will go straight back into my mk2 anyway so this will help me get mine sorted a lot sooner

Bit more masking, other than a good wipe down and any last minute prep, its pretty much ready for paint

Because your mk2 is beat to fuck ain't it? Bodywork wise....

Or did you say you were getting your other one sprayed too?

Seriously i'd be interested in buying this off you, i need a black mk2.

nah the other one is just commetic, got some new panels that i'm prepping up for it and yeah its getting a lick of paint while its off the road

the previous owner has been in touch and he is still interested in buying this back once its on the road but you still have second dibs on it

black coupes are where its at

Fuck off max, you dont need another car

Going on the time scale this has been going on.. it will be ready when I'm looking to buy a new daily

Ideal to swap all the good stuff from the coupe too when the time is ready.

Good progress tho bro! Filler work is wank! (as in, doing it, not you are work lol)

nice to see this coming along, nice work.

I do, 3 isn't enough,

So is this just gonna be re-sprayed and left pretty much original then? Any suspension/engine plans?

Have you not read any of the thread max?

Engine standard, suspension is lowered 40mm, breaks are vw2's

Few more pics, its just the first coat but its come out pretty well :-)

The picture quality is pretty shit tho, my phone isn't great in poor light

Well chuffed with how this quarter/lower arch has turned out considering there wasn't anything there when we got it

dayum son!!! looks amazin! spray mine haha

Cheers but I didn't spray it Eric, that was all john

It still needs some work and there's still stuff like the boot lid (thats still attached to my car atm) and passenger wing to do, but its getting there

it certainly is! impressive stuff.

bet your buzzing to spray yours now haha

Yeah just gotta make sure he don't mind doing it first

Guy you know me well, i skipped straight to the last page , i haven't read it in a while.

You really shouldn't have posted them pics up, I'll give you $1,000,000 for it!

Will look amazing when its on a set of smart wheels etc.

looking really good.

winning

Flatted it back yet ? either way looks bob on !!!!

nah not yet, only got painted this afternoon

cheers

Nothing better than a mopped car after respray. Only thing is the shit goes everywhere lol

hurry up and get it sold so you can plough the money into the other one yeah get what I'm saying

we need a race once ours are done hopefully both for the first show at the pod next year

car is now as built as it can be. the bonnet needs repainting as we ain't happy with it, the boot lid and wing still need painting too, other than that the car is complete

well happy with the results

pete i'll see you at the pod... if i don't blow it up before then

oh and nice one for the measurements mate they will come in very handy

Looks amazing! Nice work. Sell it and pay for action
