So after an extended period of time (about 5 years) without a Mk1 in my life, I picked up a 1980 Caddy that has been off the road and rusting away for some time. I picked up a 1986 Cabriolet that was imported from Germany with a G60 swap as a parts car. The plan is to completely tear down the Caddy and paint it and swap over every possible useable part from the Cabriolet. Something tells me I am going to look back on this post and say "What was I thinking?" :facepalm:

I still have to get the Caddy towed to the shop, so teardown isn't going to start until July 1, but progress should be fast from there. I will do my best to take photos with my P&S camera instead of my cellphone, but there will probably still be loads of cellphone photos. Wish me luck. :beer:

It came with another tailgate and I'll have to strip the lights.
