VW Golf Cabrio Mk1 - Finished Pics

Hi guys,

I've been working - in between the Merc's - on this Golf. I just made it because it was a special request for a friend of mine (he purchased this kit, ages ago) . This kit is a crappy one - from Mitsuwa Model or something - fits badly, has a seperate floorplan, doorpanels glued to body etc. There were even no decals for the dials. Furthermore, the paintjob didn't turned out the way I wanted it, but I showed it to my friend and he is very happy with it, so I'm happy :)

Cheers,
Guido

Thanks a lot guys for the comments, the roof cover is about the only thing I did to improve it a bit.

It looks pretty good. I think you can pick up the mistakes better than we can (considering you made this kit... :p )

Practice is the key word here - the more kits you build, the better you get :D
