DUBSTAR'S PROJECT - Weiss Hase - 1976 Golf LS

[dubstar]

I've been hanging out for a project car for a year+ now and I finally found a Mk1 3 door. The search has been long, with a few near misses, but it's complete!

















There's tidying up to do, but overall its in great condition.

Plans are:

1) Keep the outside minty fresh/period patina
2) Good suspension and some wider 14/15's with sticky rubber.
3) I want to go 2.0L crossflow/counterflow 8v and run some Weber DCOEs, but use programmable ignition.
4) Interior needs a full refurb/strip out. I want some oldschool race seats, like on the early 911s/minis/fiats.

Things I need are:

1) A black dash, no cracks.
2) The lever/lock for the left hand opening vent window, it's gone and I want to glue one back on.

Any help would be appreciated

Brilliant! Looks to be in fantastic condition. All the best, mate.

It looks pretty damn clean as! Good find was worth the wait. I like the idea of the old type racing seats.

Was that Steve's car?

Clean find. Body's straight and no rust. What more could you ask for! I'll keep a close eye on this thread. How did you come across her mate?

Thanks all, I bought it from a guy in Geelong. He had posted briefly on aussieveedubbers about a Mk1 that he had sitting and I said I'd be interested. I have a deck to finish on the house first, after that, its on.

I just ordered some Spax RSX coilovers for him (my wife has named him Andy), which should arrive in a few weeks.

Jealous. I also knew of this car in VIC and was hoping to buy it one day.

Used to be owned by greasykitchen (stephen) from SA.
