Looks much better now. What's that bottle that keeps appearing in the photos? Is it some type of cleaning fluid :whistle:

haha

sharp eye mate..

if you look at my cupra thread, you could play "where's the bottle" instead of where's waldo... (or is it wally?)

lol

think of it as gatorade for me...for when the man with the hammer comes
 
haha fairplay mate! That's beautiful!!... Love Mk1s!! Good job too, interesting little thread/project. :)

Btw - silly question but, is there seals on the doors on that car lol? Doesn't look like there is any that's all... not that I NEED to know :whistle: ha.
 
oh you mean the ones to keep rain/water out...

they are on the inside. you never see them on the outside with these.
 
nice mate, that interior looks immaculate and cool as in that colour :)

i just bought myself a mk1 golf, also going to be a bit of a project,

heres mine:

thanks lads

lol brummy...you gotta watch out for them ;)

i like that golf ibiza 95. Good thing about the 13" rims is you can go even lower :)
Interior on mine is definately nice. Previous owner only filled the cheek of the drivers chair but the rest is original. Even got the boot lid without holes

Not sure what is next though...hmmm hope it doesn't get boring now lol
 
I've already affected a couple of people around me with the oldtimer vw virus lol. Got my brother to buy a Jetta 1, and going to see a Golf 1 Gti this saturday for a mate of mine. ;)
 
haha (im laughing at myself)
iv just read the thread over about 4 times playing "spot the gatorade", lol
looks like a bottle of beer :D

i like this golf, always been a fan of the MK1, and been tempted myself to buy one a few times.
really good work so far bud, keep it up

Always loved these and would stiff have one.
you have totally transformed the car with what you have done, well done.

I have a friend building a track MK1 Golf with a MK2 1.8 16v engine on throttle bodies and cams:)
 
really nice project you've got there, looks proper mint, heavy liking the wheels man

any future mods ?

air suspension etc
x
 
not really sure what to do next. Once i get a place where i can properly work i'll probably take out the engine and put a 2.0 8v in there i think...

but that wont be for a while.
Now I want to sell the cupra and buy a golf 2 G60. Start working on that.

anyway thanks for all the kind replies. Quite pleased as well ;)
