It look worst in the photos may be the darkness. I know most people would look at this and walk away but looking at it except for the roof it's all the same things I have had to do to the mk1. and it worth doing. The mk3 still has those old mini bits. Twin bolt subframe. Dated windscreen motor. Remote gear change. Single stork indicators. Ingintio. Key in the middle of the dash. No reverse lights or fog light.
Well done Matt you know if there is anything in time you need help with or questions. Along with dave se have been there with old cars. Just ask.
