If its not structural where the rust is wont not fix it up don't strip it! If your going to end up stripping it then be a waste and ill have it off you

this metro has some serious rust!! every panel has a bit of rust on it
this is the worst part (passenger footwell)

though my mate came round today and we wanted to drive it round some stubble fields, so first job we did was sort the rust out...

and took the alloys off and put on somme old steel wheels

stripped out the interior, has black carpets that will be going in my tahiti soon, along with the seat belts!!

awful wheel arch, has been repaid multiple times apparently

swapped the seats over with my tahiti

fitted an all important fire extinguisher!

and last but not least RACING STRIPS!!!!


my mate and i spend all day stripping it and driving around a field, was huge fun!!!! getting the back sliding around a stubble fields is scary but such fun. top speed we managed was 60!! and this was on a like 5-6 acre field, not big but big enough!!

thanks ed

Take the mk3 front end off as someone will want this for a gti rep. But I can see what u mean about the rust isn't to bad but bad enough I would have used it as a project for track or something

Dont forget under seat plastics, carpet trim, those covered cardboard inserts and mk3 seatbelt buckles, possibly cover too?
