Brazilian B1 Passat GTS Pointer Restoration

Post by Fuscao »

I'm restoring a B1 Passat GTS Pointer, after 1 and a half year we finally painted it and started to assemble it back, here is a video showing nearly every stage of the bodywork:

Here are some photos of the re-assembly, starting with the mechanic, everything we are putting back is new or restored:

This should be the final result, the pictures are from my friend's 1987 Passat GTS Pointer (exept for some details the 87 is equal to the 86):
