Wasn't that a donor vehicle? :p

Great write-up. Thank you!

Definitely not a thing to be desired! Thanks for sharing the pics, it really does make a difference imho. Who knows , I might just make it next year! Ditto. The pictures are greatly appreciated.

On my 83, the copper pipes had started to leak in a few places so had to rip them all out and have some replacements made.  Not a difficult job, just filthy and brake fluid isn't the nicest of stuff at the best of times.

If it's "just" the master cylinder then you're in for an easy win

Whilst this would make for an excellent stag-do weekend, I'm already committed elsewhere.  Hope you all have a great time!

I do love the look of freshly refurbished parts. Well done.

I've had a look around, asked for some advice and the general consensus is to get them sand blasted, galvanised and re-painted. I've contacted Joseph Ash here in Kent but they don't do car stuff, so any suggestions would be g...

Otherwise Eagle Autos in Swanley perhaps?

Eagle Autos in Swanley sounds like a good shout. Close to where we live. Thank you. 

I had a look at the Wiki pages and the closest reference was a place out in Rochester, but I'm wondering if anyone is aware of a T25 specialist or a good garage with classic VW knowledge around Dartford?  Ideally syncro-knowledge would be an advantage.  E D I T: Thanks for moving to the correct sect...
