Looking good, nice to see another late Fastback being sorted.

Keep us updated with pics.

Thanks. Im not into the age snobbery thing

Just been stripping the inner rear arches back to metal ... only a few small holes to sort, and new rear belt mounts.

It was an early nineties cal-looker, smoothed with 'splat' stickers. Needless to say the style will be changed a tad.

Its had a new front and rear valences, due to previous accident damage, but otherwise just small patch repairs.

Flat out on it at the moment ...

And that's some big garage you have there.

You don't know how lucky you are having a late Fastback without the air vents by the rear window. I'm tempted to blend in mine in the '72.

type3 - I work on an RAF establishment, and we have access to old hangers that are fitted out for car restos ......... dead handy.

and cheap, too.

Ed - vents seem to be a pain in general.

Ive had issues with the under windcreen ones, as usual ...... however, the pop-out rear windows are great, and the flexi-glass is always a talking point!

Not near Bristol by any chance, Clem? I'd love to find one of those places. There's an area reserved for Airbus in the aero museum I help with, but I can't persuade them that dry storage of old VWs would be beneficial to Airbus!

I was at Coventry airfield today - there's a light-plane there G-CLEM. Just the job!

Im on a non flying unit on the edge of Gloucester, however, we are almost next door to Staverton Airport.
