I am looking to sell my MK1 Golf, which I bought mid project in 2016. The aspiration was to complete the project which was inspired by various AWD R32 conversions, and would have been a long term fabrication project. However, life has always got in the way, with many personal hurdles being thrown at me and my path changing vastly, so doing this project is no longer viable.

The car is a Black, 2 door tin-top, with no interior or windows - it is pretty much a bare metal shell. However it has:
Been modified to accommodate the 3.2 R32 Engine and gearbox, with reinforcement added to the Engine rails and arches
Smoothed engine bay where the battery tray and other auxiliaries would be.
Modification to the rear subframe, where the spare wheel and fuel tank would have been,
R32 engine
Engine Loom and CPU
6 speed manual gearbox
Shortened prop and drive shafts
Steering rack
A rear diffuser mounted to the new subframe at the back

Some of the major work the car would need (if it were to be built) includes
Sandblasting/dip of chassis, and ultimately full respray
Rear chassis rails and subframe to be reinforced and finished
Whole rear floor to be rebuilt
Whole new front end
New fuel cap area on bodywork
Repair on boot lid mount
Full interior and electrical rebuild

The car had always been stored inside, until 4 years ago where it was moved undercover to the corner of a field, however it’s no longer covered.
The engine has always been covered and protected from the elements.

Honestly, I don’t know what the car is worth, or if it’s worth rebuilding, or if only the mechanical parts are salvageable, so I am open to offers and advice, but the car ideally needs to be gone before the end of this month.

Best Wishes

Shaun
