1.9 16v Turbo makes boost again

After being parked up for 11 years my MK1 Golf hits the road again.

It’s in need of a lot of TLC but I was amazed when it passed it’s MOT with a few minor bits needed…

I’ve missed the sound of it making boost, really makes me feel young again.

Time to start sourcing the parts to make her ready for shows and the strip next year.

While the tank and rear beams out might as well give it a fresh bit of undercoat to protect it for another 30 years

Bit of a rub down and fresh paint on the rear beam and I had a set of polly bushes so chucked them on.
