Is that not a MK1a splitter Dave?
Is that not a MK1a splitter Dave?
It's not rusty as such, I think it needs a bit of welding. Was planning on getting the sill kits welded on just so I know they're done.
First plan is to get it running mechanically. It starts and runs fine but its not smooth so will get a video up soon and hopefully someone can help me!
I thought it was a mk1a from what the seller told me, not too bothered of its a mk1b though.
How would I go about getting the badges back on? Are they stickers or plastic glued on?
Its a mk1a splitter but the mk1a front bumper has a ridge on it normally
I have a disk where one of the previous owners has had the arches redone and the pictures before, after and during his shabby paint job. From these he has bog and fillered the splitter to the bumper so he may have bought the splitter separate not knowing its from the other model? Ill upload those pics soon.
Pictures from the disk:
Much prefer the first picture
Its deffo 1a, it has the aerial on the roof, the 1a dash & doorcards, & you can see the original 1a bumper, wheels & seats on some of the photos you have posted. Its important you know which version it is as a number of parts arent interchangable. What a shame the last owner decided to get rid of the 2 tone.... white over silver is a winning combination! Good luck with the project it will look great when done & it seems like a solid base.

Definately a mk1a but with mk1b bumpers and seats fitted. Kris look at the two bumper together
Thats an agressive front end Dave!
hi winniee,the white over siliver looked really nice, it would not take much work to make it like that again! you have a nice car there mate!
More pics of this please! If that's the mk1a bumper then I want it! Also like them skirts.
Definately!
I'm not sure if I wanna do a full respray or flat and polish the current paint and just top it up best I can.
If I was going to go for a full respray though I'd probably go for a Red to be honest :/.
Is there anyway I can turn this to a project thread?
