Mk 1 parts

[jaffa]

I have owned my white 5dr Mk1 since 76, done over 400 thousand ks and then a truck ran up the back of me and wrote it off. I soon discovered I couldn't live without a Mk1, so am putting together another one, with bits from the wreck. Its going to look stock, even 70's 13inch mags to keep it in the era. I am after a new GTI grill though but haven't seen them for years.
The wreck has 1.8 5speed, so will swap that as well.
Good to see some young blood into these cars, but they are getting thin on the ground now.

Motor is 1.8 from a wrecked import, had an auto box. Lots of torque. It was injected but I am running a datra webber two barrel on TS Passat manifold.
I would love to inject it if someone knows how.
