New Member and my MK1 GTi (rally look)

Hi, new here from chorley, near preston, heres my car

Mk1 1600 GTi
Fully adjustable suspension, camber etc
Aluline Cups - powder coatd white
Full Roll Cage with custom rear brace
Bucket seats
Uprated Brakes
Lots more to come !!!!

When i got the car it looked straight enought, when i started digging i had a lot of work to do to the floor, roof and sills.

The car ran ok but kept dropping on to 3 cylinders, sorted that issue out, and the fuling as the timing was way out.

Since i bought the car i have had it welded up now it's leak free (almost) and runs perfect, sorted the brakes out so they are not as flat and tidied it up

Heres how it looked when i got it







And now, sorry not took any recent pics, wil do soon





Comments welcome, good or bad

Thanks

Andy

New - ish pics (well last time it was on the road) last year !!!








then i had the roof vinyl put on to cover the sunroof, this had to be welded in as one of the previous owners had grinded off the mounting brackets.





as you can see from the pics the fuel system has been changed, alloy tank and swirlpot running off 2 pumps

I was on the stand next to you lot at tatton park so some of you might have seen it,

thinking of selling this.  will try to upload some new pictures.  in 5 years i have only driven it about 200miles.

how much do you think it would be worth.  bare in mind it is completely stripped out and is only suitable as a road legal track car / track car

any help would be great
