HI all , 

I've uploaded several pictures of the 1981 Ur-q restauration . 
Feel free to take a look . It's all body and sheetmetal work for now . 
My plan was to have the car back on it's wheels by the end of April . 
The rear section is finished , and the right side almost . 
Haven't even started on the left side , wich was the worst . 
Guess I  need to stop planning things :)

This car is a project car . 
I've got two 1981's , but only enough parts to make one fully orignal full option restauration . 
This is the other one . Anything goes on this one as long as I like it and as long as it respect's 
the "spirit" of the urquattro . 

So I've compiled a list of options and modifications wich can and some ( most ) of them will be
put on the car . 
Compiling this list on order not to forget somthing . 
The idea is to avoid welding, drilling etc after the body is painted . 
The difference between a plain vintage car and a superb restauration is usually in the details .
So I'de like to integrate a lot of cool features .   
Opinions , ideas , do or don't's , btdt's ....; shoot
