hi to all

Hi people
I am new to the golf sceen, but not to vws i have a t4 van that i am doing a 1.9tdi conversion too, and 2 classic beetles, 1 is a 1963 that i am doing a body of resto on, and the other is a 1969 1500.

I have just brought a Mk1 gti cabriolet 1985 black special, it is in need of some work for the mot. it has been sat in a barn for over 4 years. it is fairly solid, started right up with a fresh battery and some easy start. once it started to pump fuel it ran sweet as. i have been told that there are not many black specials left. they only made them for 2 years

Came with Montego black metallic paint, black interior with white stripes and either tarantula  or zandvoort wheels.

has anyone seen one of these, i will post some photos when i get some done.

Oh yeah i come from Devon but only a few miles from the Cornwall border, and i am a commitee member on the cvwoc. we are having our 25th jamboree over the August bank holiday, check out the website for details.

Cheers Pete

Hi Pete and welcome to the site bud.  Get those pics up and I'm sure someone will be able to tell you more about the motor.  Hope you enjoy having a look around.
