I feel your pain on the doors. I have a later all-steel passenger one tucked away and I'm on the hunt for a matching drivers side one.
Not sure about the alloys. As far as I know, they were never offered on 200tdi's due to the rear drum brakes. Does yours still have them, as they may not fit over the drums?

No problem matey
Did a bit of work on Sunday, got the tow hitch off which was about as much fun as pulling one of my own teeth out (as all tow hitches are) ready for the rear member to be raptored after i've cleaned off the underneath.

Rock sliders arrived today, should be going to pick up some new (to me) ET0 steel modulars with 265/75/16 tyres.
Probably going to paint them white, any idea which shade I need to match my roof? |

Those doors do look very nice. Don't forget to fill the cavities with wax of some description! Darren

Credit where credit is due, the doors were my dad's work
Oh one thing I forgot to mention is the fuel tank is weeping, I wasn't sure but now the underside has dried out its pretty obvious. So new tank it is! 1993 200 Tdi 90 CSW 1956 Series 1 Hard-top 1958 Series 1 Soft-top |
