Just wanted to update what's happening - I've put the mk2 on the back burner for now. It is booked in with Dan Tinkler / DST Rustworx summer 2023 (paid deposit / waiting list) as I've decided I want this car done top notch. It will be having some work on the rear valance, rear arches, he will make good my front arches with pattern parts, front inner arches have a couple of areas.

The car will be going to him as a stripped (including engine) shell. I will get what needs to be painted and the engine bay painted once the work is done.

I've also been working on the mk3 16v and have bitten off more than I can chew with two cars on the go so putting the mk2 on the back burner focuses my mind on getting that one done and potentially sold as 3 old cars is a bit too much for me to keep on top of and actually use. I have bought all the mechanical parts for both cars - exhausts, bolts, bushes, fuel lines etc etc.
