my 20vt update

Here are a few pics of my mk1.

Still needs a little improvement to make it more user friendly.
Not sure about the wheels, i think they are very rare, i have not seen them on any other mk1`s. Just a bit of a change to the usual BBS.

Will swap them over soon for g60 steels when i get tyres for them.

I have only owned it for a few weeks.
Hope you all like it.

very nice wish mine was as clean as that

i like the wheel bit out of the norm.

what seats you got in there?? mk4 leathers are they??

TT front and rear seats.

going to remove the rears as they dont look quite right.

stunning, love the wheels and engine bay

that car is absolutely perfect………

well done.

Very nice. Love the colour. And as you say its nice to see mk1's on something other than bbs's especially in magazines.

Used to have the pvw sticker, removed it a couple of days ago.
That is weird someone having my car as their background!

My mates old car from Yarmouth Pie aint it ?

Lovely car i was going to do a deal with him on my Campaign ages ago but decided not to.

Used to belong to Pie, yes.

He is a good man, very helpful and useful guy to know.

Is he building another golf? noticed the other day he was looking for carbs.

Yep putting a 20vt into the Orange one i think.

The wheels are lovely!  Do you have any plans on lowering it?

Due to all the speed bumps and condition of the roads where i live it wont be going much lower unless it`s for show.

Here is an updated pic with the steelies on for winter



Needs to go lower!!!!

Are you using it through the winter then? Chrome vw centre caps would suit your car well

I will only be using it if i really have to, it will be in the lock-up most of the time.

Love that

Over the weekend i fitted some chrome trim and petrol cap.



I was really wanting an original chrome "snowflake" cap but they are far to expensive for me at the moment.



I also wired up the cigarette lighter so i can use one of those aftermarket ceramic heaters. They are POOP!!! I urgently need to get some heaters, while checking out the wiring i found that its a bit messy so my next big job is to start tidying that up.





The tt seats are almost finished, will have to remove the fronts to paint the subframes etc.

Still looking for pics of the cabby rear seat for the interior trim!!!
I have been told that this will cover the gaps at the side. What do you think???



Any advice on heaters?
I was thinking of buying some ducting and vents and makeing my own system as i am not sure what will and wont work. What ever happens it will have to be small and compact as there is`nt much room behind the s1 dash.

Looking good. The chrome trim looks a lot better

You can get compact heaters for kit cars. Whats wrong with your heater though? Mine keeps me warm
