hellooo !!. again i think haha

soo im pretty sure iv posted on here befor

but iv just got my 1st mk1

im so pleased with it

soo i swaped my polo van

it was a bit of a gamble


basicly the golf was up for sale on edition with the head gasket blown
so a trip to leicester in a transit flat bed with my polo van on the back took place

 

and heres the golf













its a 1983 mk1 golf with 86000on the clocks and a 1.6 gtd lump with uprated turbo
so far it has full gti spec brakes
gti intirior
front and rear strutbraces
k&n airfilter
2.5" straightrough stainless exhaust
coilovers of some form


i think i did verry well for  a straight swap

plans are.

manul boost controller
fmic
stainless boost tubing and samco hoses
a few small pump mods

standard grill
black side trims
a new front bumper as the dude decided to screw the plate to it :glare:

and posably some 15s I'm not to sure yet as i love the look on 13s

turns out the reason it was over heating was a core plug had blown and there was a major leak in the rad and the rad wasnt even wired in  .
and the white smoke and genaral crap running of the car was due to the fule pump timing being well out
 B)
good times

looks sweet, those wheels suit it too
