My mk1 golf van

Hi all this is my long on going project been doing this 3 years now it's been a lot 
Off heart ake lots of things have gone wrong but it's getting there now still waiting on body panels to be sprayed 
So I can fit it all back up but thats another long story hope u like my project 
Look forward to meeting some nice vw ppl 
On here an  hopefully I'll be at the shows an local meets this year 

Looks a tidy van mate and they're getting quite rare now so well worth effort going into it. Is it just standard? any upgrades engine wise? Tell us more
