Hello all
this was my old golf, she was a 1990 clipper which was nice at the time but IMO all clippers look the same just about
so i took her bumpers off smoothed and filled and lowered her more of banded steels and i thought i was the cats whiskers in it
but due to work i had to sell her
now my daily is a lupo which is modified and my current show car and also my daily
but now i am bored and wanted a new project as i like to get my hands dirty, not one of these girly girls. i like to do alot if not all the work myself and i NEEDED to get another mk1 for sure.
so i bought a 1982 irish mk1 that is half way through a 1.8t conversion.
but she is a mess, its very half arsed and full of mistakes but she is mine now
let the love begin !!!

Welcome to the tintop The shell looks solid - is it?
Judging by the lupo I guess it wont be staying black?

gonna be a long project i reckon as she has almost no good interior parts and i cant get the engine to spark
its running 12v over the coil packs but drops to almost nothing on a key turn
the power cables are huge and very badly connected so gonna get some with less girth and start from there

First time I've heard a woman asking for less girth!
(Sorry, couldn't resist that one )
