  15. cheers guys, it getting there slowly , god know how much time and money ive spent on it, and i still havent done the timing chains, clutch ect ect. so theres still loads of work to be done, just trying hard to get the nugget road worthy again after 4 years and hopefully get it through mot in the next few weeks.and then i can use the garage. i will let you know if i decide to let the shrick mani go, you will have 1st dibs, but for now, ican afford to keep it!! :clap:
  16. using the foliage metal work sections were cut and positioned in place, and then welded, smoothed off, no traces of rust were left after the welding i used a rust inhibitor called genolite which is like a acid that prevents rust from forming again. and forms a chemical reaction .thats why it looks king of greeney/white colour. after this 2 coats of zinc 182 antirust etch primer, to seal it up. i then got some paint mixed and blended the colours together around the foliage and bulk head area, followed by clear coat, i dont have a pic of when i painted it but i will get one.2.8l 24v Climatronic system.pdfCIMG0539.JPG[/attachment:oc0rw2v8]climatronic wiring-Golf from May 01.pdfCIMG0538.JPG[/attachment:oc0rw2v8]CIMG0540.JPG[/attachment:oc0rw2v8]
  17. its been a little while since ive updated ,but i have been doing work on the storm here and there, but been real busy with all sorts, work gets in the way of enjoying life sometimes!! :lol: anyway , i had a rust issue near the foliage seal, which was allowing water into the cabin, and it was quite awkward to repair,this has obviously happened due to the muppet who installed the a/c system at the dealership not taking car in covering exsposed metal work, firstly i took the bonnet off , a/c heater box out, carpet up, wiper linkage out clean the whole area down with degreaser.and cut the whole rusted section out, i had a spare one cut from a broken car, which was in great condition. super mig 185 out, metal work shaped tacked and then welded, as always, the weld was smoothed off and seal sealed.
  18. is there ant forum members that are windscreen fitters? at least you know youd prob get looked after and get a decent job done, ive seen/experienced some bad fitters out there!
