I should have done this months ago. Can I be forgiven for my lack of manners? I shall now introduce myself I live near the coast in Suffolk with a dismantled Mk3 Coupe in my garage(puchased in March last year). It has a body and gel coat in very good condition, the interior is not bad, the running gear is rusty or seized or knackered, and the engine is an Avonbar 1.4S(over heats possibly head gasket). I have slowly been collecting together the bits and pieces to restore and improve it but it is going to take a long time(two young kids) which is difficult if you are as impatient as me!(I even have dreams about driving it). I will probably convert to coil springs at the front, construct a rear seat actually there is a long list of the familiar stuff to do.
The help and information on the two forums has been invaluable thank you. I could probably still be found floundering around in the desert of no knowledge screaming help!
I'd better stop. I can ramble on forever
