    Good idea Matt,


    Sam found this Mk1 up near Greenwood, the owner wanted a rear quarter and the rear beam for his cabby, wanted to save the car for one of my kids and give him the "correct" panels for his cabby from one of the 2 Cabby's I have to wreck. But NO, he had to have the bits from the 2 door shell.

    Was a 76 with minimal rust, have saved a lot of the shell for my Mk1 and rocco floors..

    Lots of MK 1 Scirocco's...

    If it aint a MK 1 then it must be a donor car ??

    Cheers,
    Grant...

    Prob was the whole car was doomed by the previous owner, all i was doing was making her live on to keep another golf/rocco on the road..

    omg noo!! a couple of 2 doors that could be saved, i'd be shattered if he had an actual GTi rotting away there, what a waste of golfs there isnt an abundance and this guy has trashed heaps of them
