Yeah he's going for the G60 look with the wheels

[Gus!!]

That golf is cool, i especially like the merc wheels, and i have always prefferred base spec golfs!!

[Michael!]

It's not base spec hahaha!

It's a small bumper gti just been fully rebuilt - 911 interior! Brand new coilovers etc... It has the 1.9 conversion too and it's rapid!


I know jony a nice gold though





Dusted off the fez yesterday, still no rust (thank f**k) will be starting it again in the summer

[Gus!!]

Tbh i disnt really mean base spec, i much prefer the small bumper gti's and golfs with no plastic arches look even better!! My mate is nearly finished doing his mk1 caddy pickup and it has had a lot of restoration!!

[sam-si]

Yeah, it stopping firing, wouldn't turn over or start so I stripped the loom, took the head out then undid the engine mount.

how come you didn't just ment the exsisting engine as it wasn't seized was it?

[Michael!]

No tax, no mot and no use for it so I just set a was stripping it

[Rs Adz]

[Michael!]

Keep it in the road

[Rs Adz]

lol with tax test and insurance

[Michael!]

And an exhaust and legal tyres hahaha

[Rs Adz]

lol

[Michael!]

Saved up for a new car - couldn't find one I liked so spent more money on this.

Since my last update it's had;

New front brake set up (cheapo ones)
Both front bearings
New tyres
A new standard backbox

And I bought these



And did that


Plans are as follows;

Custom stainless exhaust - booked in for monday
Wing/door scratch and both mirrors - booked in for the end of June.
Fit the polybushes, get it tracked up.
Fit the coilovers - get over speedbumps.
Get a standard set of headlights as these fog up like f**k now.
Fit gti manifold (delete pre-cat) - bought
Fit gti inlet manifold - bought
Get it re-remapped.
Fit my retrimmed recaros .
Freshen up brakes + service it (again)
Needs a new drivers cv joint too so that too.


What do you think? I'm doing well...

[jonyb4]

why because you bought some shinies?

[Michael!]

Because its still on the road and working hahahahahaha



And yes, my shinies too

[Gus!!]

I'm just impressed that you havent scrapped it yet!! imo it would look a lot better when u get standard lights and some decent wheels (finally) lol

[jonyb4]

its what 13 years old? if it were from the 80's id say well done yeah

[Michael!]

Trust me, it's been an absolute battle to keep it on the road, it's not easy being so low...


I've got some new wheels lined up, hopefully got some teledials with adapters cheap

[jonyb4]

then raise it...

[- Danny Boy -]

Form > Function.

[Ratspeed]

Screw Jony, keep it decked.

[Gus!!]

Raise it?? Na f**k that!! If it aint rubbin you aint dubbin

[- Danny Boy -]
