    I can't understand how he doesn't see his master build as something special.

    I love how honest he is about how tough it was to do
    Most lads brush over it and make it sound simple

    Really digging the project. That bay is perfect with no clutter, or emissions bullshit. You got all the right ingredients there, and it made a great looking driver! A red stripe across the top of the single round grille, smoked hella turn lenses/ tails, and some smoked crosshairs with white LED city lights would look amazing IMO. Nevertheless, really nice work. Tasteful mods, and properly executed. 😎👍

    Awesome, John ! You're honing your craftsman skills!! Great video. You'll become the Magnus Walker of VW's! Great passion and glad your wife is supportive. She knows it keeps you out of trouble and she knows where to find you, LOL. You have skills and growing up on the farm, having to keep equipment working has honed that!
    Glad you have another project and an easier "canvas" to work on. It took me about 2 years to find my 5th Scirocco to work on that had a fairly decent body to help me minimize that particular work. Looking forward to seeing your next project. Keep up the passion and energy! Maybe you can share this video on your YT page. Just asked to follow you on your Instagram page.

    • @jrawsthorne3365

    9 years, oof Started in Feb, 2020 Turning a 2016 Scirocco R, (that has been hit in the arse), into AWD, I've got the Golf R floor in, suspension, diff, gearbox and R drive shaft. Still need to sort fuel tank, exhaust, fuel and brake lines, a beaver panel, rear hatch, tail lights, and paint. Love the Matt black finish. but think i'll keep it blue.Staying motivated is the hardest part, one job, a few hours at a time, will hopefully see the project done sooner than later.
