You have now all the VW collection. I think that fasty can look very interesting only with a few clean water. Good luck with it, and we hope more pictures of the process.
Where is the engine?

yeah the fasty is very clean exept 1 or 2 small hole under the wings
and my plan is rebuilt all the brakes and check the electric systeme and engine changing the motor oil, I don't now the good expression for that...
and cleaning the car of course.
after the technical control I would like slammed the car and rebuilt the engine for a 1641cc whit 110 crankshaft (is all right?)
put a gasburner wheel whit small front tyres and my beautiful steering wheel (this is my EX KG ...)

Hi from Spain. I put a TMI upholstery and panels on my 73 squareback 5 years ago, and today looks like new. But I haven´t pics of the process. You can see some pics of the finnal result here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=241

I can recommend you that ou replace the thread that is coming with the upholstery parts for thighting the seats and the backrests by a cable. I think the thread can break itself and I never had a problem with the cable.

Good luck, and welcome to this forum.
