My project totally pissed me off when I found more rust (see above) ...and then more rust Then some life events took priority etc...

I was honestly thinking of quitting this whole mk2 thing all together!
but , nah, it'd be too easy!

so, more rust issues - the whole firewall needed to be redone, rain tray cut out etc..




aaand from the inside:




this was a bit of a set back but we got it all sorted proper!




I used Por15 rust paint on floor boards, then applied roofing material simialr to dynomat. kinda getto but it worked well on a couple of my buddys' projects so I went with it.

Original carpet under padding was all rotted out; I had to get a roll of generic stuff. It's quite time consuming to cut and glue all the pieces so the carpet sits nice and snug. almost as bad as the headliner job

More pix soon as I'm sorting thru what's left of my albums since my laptop also has crashed!

Meanwhile, some tru old skool for ya - my friends found this in a bag of shop rags. dated 1989





cheers!
