Default my mk1 golf
been trying to find this body after the accident with my last one and i found one. all ive done right now is put on the side skirts and putty up some rough parts not sure if it going to be mini-z or xmod chassis yet but i know the colour





just alittle update decided to go with the z chassis got it all mounted up added the tagu`s just to see. iam also going to add the dash and side panel and who can spot the annoying bit that is going to be a bugger to fix









added the rear parcel shelf not glued yet also going to be adding a rollcage just a quick mockup for now







roll cage in car

Great color choice... it really suites the car!!

Like the rims to.. are those Z ones? I'm guessing they are because you appear to have changed chassis'

Is that sunroof going to be powered

Looks excellent, the detail around the grill is a really nice touch!
