    It's 1 year old 70s/80s/90s white plastic white. The important thing is that you are doing it, and the best you can, learning is a part of life. If someone can do it better them self or pay someone to do it better. Well get to work or pull your credit card out.

      I totally agree, for me it's important to gain experience by doing things. What I like is to do it alone, when I can make mistakes without being blamed on the spot 🤫

      Happy to hear that you like this video series about Golf GTD :) Thanks for ecouraging words. I was thinking about leaving this project few times, but I am always returning to it and I will continue until it is finished :) Now I need to prepare all the rest parts like wings, doors, bonnet etc. That will be lot of fun, I am sure 😁

    Good progress. I actually liked the green color it was but its your car afterall

      Thanks :) Montana green is a nice color, I admit that, but for this project I decided to go with polar silver. I think final result will be good. Lets see :)

    Great work! So what if people think you aren't doing it right, even if it is your Dad? 😂 At least you are doing it. You are inspiring me on my own Mk2 project to try everything myself, including the body work, so keep making the content!

      Thanks a lot for you kind words 😊 I will definitely continue with working on the GTD. Plenty of work ahead on other parts excluding body :) I will now have a little vacation to get some new energy 😁🏖

      Thanks, I will keep these wheels for winter season :) For summer I will go with some other ones, most probably japanracing jr31.

      Thanks, noted 📝😊 As you already figured out, I call lot of parts like "stuff" 😁 when I dont know the correct name.

    Great work, this is a fun project car. I like the original color, are you planning to stick with this paint color?

    • @honestmileage5225
      @honestmileage5225  Před 28 dny

      Thanks a lot :) I agree, its a fun project car. I can practice every type of car job, because nothing is in good condition on it 😁 Regarding color, I will not go with the montana green. It is nice color, but it doesnt fit to my "dream" setup, which is polar silver golf.

    Do you normally run two sets of wheels where you are? Winter and summer?

    • @honestmileage5225
      @honestmileage5225  Před měsícem +1

      Yes, I am located in central Europe (Slovakia) and we run winter and summer tires depending on season. Winter tires are mandatory if there is a snow layer on the road.

      @@honestmileage5225 ah yes. You get some cold weather so it makes sense. Here in the UK we only need summer tyres. So when we have one day a year of snow and ice it's chaos!
      Love this build and the encouraging words.
