I forgot about my 1.3 Driver project
got some more bits sorted
CD changer/tape player……very old model, i had the model below this in my first VW about 12 years ago
i got a Wolfsberg steering a while back…..was cheap cos the horn push is missing
started looking for something to fit it & saw a Vauxhall Corsa horn push on eBay……thought to myself the Nova has a Corsa steering wheel, measured it, too small …..but the horn push Nova SR wheel i got from Jacko's scrapyard is spot on size
changed the blue ring on it for a black rubber oring, removed the Vauxhall badge & made a plastic circle for the centre (putting a VW sticker on it)

Right….. done now't to this car since early 2008 ops:
I've desided that my back yard is too small for 3 car's…… I currently have this mk1, a mk3 Polo & a Sierra Sapphire Cosworth (got 4 car's in total, my red mk1 Golf Driver's in the garage)
1 car must be sold
I've alway's wanted a Cossie & not I've not had it long, so that stays …..so either the Polo or this get's sold
I desided that the Polo's the easier one to sell, so it's up for sale
The Sierra's then going to be my only working car for a while so it best start behaving it's self….. currently has an oil leak & a PAS fluid leak, but these should be sorted this weekend
As soon as there's some room at my brother Matt's unit the Gold Golf will be going up there on the back of my mates recovery wagon & the welding that needed will get done
……..
Plan for the car is still the same
Rough looking, road going trackday car
only change may be the seats…… got some plain black recliner type seat & I might put a rear seat in too
