VW MK1 Golf

We had this MK1 VW Golf in for a full restoration. It went off to acid dipping with our friends at Envirostrip ( https://www.envirostripgbltd.com/ ) and came out of the tanks looking a bit sorry for itself. 

At Envirostrip ( https://www.envirostripgbltd.com/ ) after dipping. 

The MK1 Golf back with us in the workshop, we did masses of metal work to this after the acid dip. Here it is part way through all the metal work and paint prep process.

After extensive metal work with welding and fabrication as well as some panel replacement, the car went through the paint prep processes. 

Engine bay all repaired and prepped ready for the paint to be applied. 

The difference already once the paint colour went on to the engine bay was unreal. 

The inside of the car all painted. 

The body of the car masked up and into the next step of paint prep. 

All primed ready for the next step.

All primed and masked up in the paint shop ready for the next step. 

Colour applied to the body, the shine straight from the gun is unreal in this colour. 

The body all in paint, ready to be polished. 

Rear view of the paint colour applied, ready for polish and already got a gorgeous shine going on. 

All polished, the rebuild done for us and ready to go back to the owner to finish the build up and get the car back on the road. 

Mirror finish was definitely accomplished on this one. 

Check out that reflection in the paint. 

The car all polished and ready to go back to the owner to finish the build up and get the car back on the road. 

Some up close detail of the finished result. Proud of the team for another job well done. 

All loaded up ready to go back to its owner to rebuild and enjoy.

The finish on the VW MK1 Golf was incredible. All the hard work paid off with this one.
