Welcome mate.
Good to see another brissie owner on board.
Hopefully we can see the thing in person at one of the local events.
So here she is, was rough as when I got it (missing trim all over the outside and generally filthy) I dont think Paul ever washed her
So far I have got most of the GTI trim back
replaced the front lip with a brand new one from China
painted the front bar
cleaned up the inside and started on the outside (still needs a good cut)
put in Hot tunnings coilovers
replaced all belts, vac lines, plugs leads dizzy cap rotor button.... ect.....ect.....
oh and painted the wheels black for now (not sure if I am keeping the steelies yet)

That's looking nice and tidy now. Good stuff
Thanks guys, She still needs some work (the roof and bonnet will need a respray eventually)
I have spent ages just trying to get the dam thing to idle properly :-/ its a real pain in the a$$
Gotta find some new strut top mounts now to, any ideas in bris?
good to see you're cleaning it up mate, good to save the older species

There are few things more satisfying in life than finding a solution to a problem and implementing it

Always look nice in White, give Jimmy Mac a call, he can sort the idle issue for you and you will not need a bank loan
Just a few new pics since I put the newly painted rear bar on
