surf blue with loads of lovely touches, whats not to like!

 

loads there i was thinking about for my Vauxhall project, was the plastic window conversion easy to do?

 

Thanks!

 

I thought it would be more difficult. The main "problem" is that you have to modify a bit the doors so if you are wrong you have a problem  >_<

Inspiring to say the least.

Fantastic attention to detail, you should be very proud.

I agree with you samkingd0n, certainly gives you a boost to get out and create something just as nice.

The fibreglass bootlid is really bad made. To the rubbish...

I'll have to restore a genuine MK1 one I have  >_<

 

Firstly, it didn't close...

And after some work, this is the result. Looking as crap!  :X

We had to modify the rubber too, if not, the boot didn't close...

Thanks but I don't want to see another fibreglass one hahaha

I'll fit a 1967 MK1 genuine boot lid I bought some months ago. A bargain!  :D
