My 5 door project

Now then,

Just won a 1983 5 door 1.1 on ebay for 270 notes, going to pick it up on tuesday. Its got 145,000 on the clock, which is steep but im going to see how well she runs, replace cambelt and maybe piston rings just for good measure to make sure it will keep plodding on for another few thousand miles before dropping a 1.8T or a 1.8 16v in.

It is a tatty little thing and needs a bit of bodywork and a respray which I will get round to, but first thing is first, coilovers… I want it stupidly low, and Im after the cheapest possible I wont lie! The hard ride is all part of the fun! Anyone got any ideas?

Ill get some pics up and a keep you updated incase it interests anyone, but basically if someone that knows what they are talking about would follow my build, although it maybe slow to beggin with, I would greatly appreciate a helpin word or 2 now and again!

Cheers, Ry.

Was it the 'Classic 1983 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF C FORMEL E RED' that you won?

It looked quite good, let us know how it is when you get it.
