Are you going to bring that bad boy to the track? 
I can't wait to see the flat black result. I am looking for a winter beater to do that too.

I once used a belt sander on the dining room walls of an apartment...
Scary how well it helped.
Andrew...aren't you supposed to be dropping off the dry cleaning right now?

I forgot to mention...since you are doing body work, I believe 90 or 91 C/Vs have different bumpers and wrap-around extensions. (Compare a 89 Golf/Jetta to a 92 and you will see what I mean). It will make for a much nicer look. Also, I think Erebuni (sp?) made a body kit some time ago for them...mostly bought up by conversion companies for handicapped conversions.
