Hello!

I've been around a bit on other forums but i thought now i'm back messing with mk1's again rather than just polishing them i should say hello!

Currently got a Mk1 Driver which was my first car that i can't bear to part with, this is currently stripped and waiting from a bit of TLC. Also got a grey mk1 clipper which has been to a few shows and meets this year and is currently undergoing an engine swap.  

I shouldn't mention it with this being a mk1 forum and everything but i've also got a lupo sport for my daily, nice but not the same as driving an older vw.

Hi and welcome Chris

got any pics of the driver and Clipper? 8)

Thanks, here's a pic of each.

The clipper


and the driver a couple of weeks ago when i finished stripping it. Needs a few bits to finish.  

love the colour of the driver! and the clipper looks great on those wheels  8)

keep us posted with progress of the driver  :wink: what's the plans for it?

Cheers, the colour's Porsche cobalt blue from the mid 90's. Not sure about the plans for it at the moment. I want to do a full on resto on it but i want to do it properly so i'm taking my time collecting bits. I've already bought a new rear panel for it from the sites very own crazyquiff and i've got a new drivers door stored but i still need front wings and sills. Oh and i need to learn to weld too!

The clipper is getting the driver's old mk2 1.8 on twin webers.   There's some progress pics in my flickr account if you click the link.
