  1. I don't reckon an alloy one is worth it. As said above, see about getting your old one refurbed
  2. Well after mostly stripping my cab for parts, I've decided to rebuild it again! Will be a new colour etc, I'll upload some pics later, but I'll make sure she sees the road again! First job is to get it rolling again!
  3. id try both ways mate, you could try it with it closed first though so it doesnt move as much,
  4. keep us posted mate! hope its not too bad!
  5. You can't remove the pins on them, it is a dash out job and you'll need to remove the speaker pod to get to the bottom hinge, and something like a trolley jack to support the door when its open, its easier as a two man job to be honest
  6. Top work mate! Breather set up looks nice, and I'll remember about that paint, looks good
  7. That may be the door stop damage? Dash needs to come out ideally to get to the hinges for movement, this will give you lift, if you want it pulled in you need to move the part on the door b pillar, loosen the hex and move inwards, but that won't give too much at the end you have the problem
  8. whats the gaps like around the rest of the door? do you need the door lifted or pulled in? bearing in mind if the door gaps are ok everywhere else when you make the top better the rest will be out
  9. id love to buy bigjons mk4! it always looks so fooking tasty! congrats to all
  10. nice, well done on getting it finished! why you selling if you dont mind me asking?
