Sadly not been on here for a bit …work and other  Last couple of days painted the Thermalite internal walls and installed the grey Duramat click in PVC floor tiles … Just Electric to install and the extra 75mm roof insulation ontop of the 50mm already installed…. Its only 3m x 3m but this little workshop is massively needed now for me to move forward on my 306  |

I'm a long time member on here, infrequent poster but frequent lingerer! I too am very deep into a full Rallye restoration but I have never posted anything about it as I see this forum as a dwindling audience. Then I see your posts Damien and I realise there's still guys beavering away in the background and totally passionate about their work. And this, trust me, gives us all inspiration and confidence to carry on, be it our car projects or maybe even something more general in life. I certainly have struggled at times finding the inspiration to carry on with my project, especially when you're staring at a rusty shell that you've stripped and wonder what now. But then you kick yourself into gear and get a bit more done, read some posts on here of guys in similar situations or maybe read up on someone who is further on than you and that has given me the boost to push on. Then when it starts coming together it makes you want to push even further. So keep at it guys, keep up the amazing work and please keep posting on here, because believe me, it really helps a lot of us out here. If I knew I had helped just one person I'd be very proud of that. Alistair ________________________________________ 1999 GTi-6 (china blue)1999 Rallye (black) |
