do u ever get your hands dirty or do u just let others do the work? the car is stunning and i had a good look around it at ed38

did most of this myself exc the actual painting and trimming. I fitted the air ride, prepped and then fitted the newly painted panels, stripped and refitted the interior. I did a nut and bolt resto of the current mk1, actually the only car i didnt do myself was the MK5, as i was out of the country for 2 months and needed to get it ready for Ultimate Dubs.

As this gets driven daily and with UD's and a few photoshoots coming up i thought it about time i gave the rocco a bit of a tidy up. Wheels were a bit scuffed (thanks to mrs pea) so they needed re painted BUT I wimped out and went with white again

Wheels are back and fitted   :happy2:
