Welcome, pop some pictures up of the mk1. Where abouts in Devon are you? I'm split between Falmouth and Tavistock so might be able assist with some very limited skills. Also devondubshack in ivybridge is a fairly useful place for bits if you are down south

Hey mate,

Welcome to the club, you've come to the right place!

Have a nosey around the MK! Projects section here:

Your Mk1 Golfs & Projects - The Mk1 Golf Owners Club

That will give you some inspiration!

And everyone is friendly here, as you can tell from Jules above!

There may well be some old posts knocking about on here too. That may help out a bit.
Get some pics up and a build thread started in the projects section. Sounds like you've got ideas bouncing around all ready though.

A very warm welcome dan666

Tell us about the MK1 now and what your doing or thinking of doing?

We've got some great, some crazy and some darn right insane minds at this Club and I think I qualify in all three groups!  O_o

So just shout out your ideas and see what comes back that you like.
If it's technical advice you need, you've come to the best place on earth when it comes to MK1's!  :thumbs:

Welcome along mate.

When you get her back on the road you'll have to pop down to one of the Cornish Meets.
 
If you get really stuck give us a yell and we'll pop up and pint and make silly suggestions and that sucking noise through the teeth that means at a garage it's gonna cost loads  :lol:
