First things to do....
Source mk1 engine loom/sensors
Tidy wiring/fuseboxes
Rustproof under boot floor/other areas
Source some new struts
Additional bars to cage
EDIT
Mount fuel/fan switches properly
Sort bentup bumper plate/mount

Aha, CDS....
And welder....
Shit the workshop is messy....
More strength ahead....
First bar cut, Should help with any side impact cave-ins Hopefully miss the seat.
Try and sort the next additions soon, bit tight on time atm,
Some more roof supports,
May be a little less angle, so it doesnt obstruct any view from the driving position,
And i think a diagonal roof bar,
strut strengthening plates to follow, arriving early next week

aha will have to weigh it when its all back together But should be safe
Mainly going to be used for track days during the summer next year, probably trailered to them at that. Then go from there with what iwant to do with it. Certainly not going to be a daily car.

Thankyou for the comments
I already have the gearbox mate, Bought it a little while back.
Had this afternoon free so cracked on and got the cross bar welded in and cut the roof supports and welded them in too. Only managed to get one picture before the camera died, But you get the idea
Sort the seat mounts next.
