All Types - Mk1 Golf by M-B Photo, on Flickr

Thanks mate that is still my favourite pic taken of my car

Little bit more done today I've fitted a 12v power supply where the bonnet pull use to be made a bracket out of some alliminum


And all fitted ready to be used

Then I cleaned my wheels using a free sample of metal polish from Kleers

It's been a while since I've  done an update a couple of pics of my car from Ultimate Dubs



A few from GTI Spring Fest at Santa pod I come away with a top 20 trophy




And a couple from early edition



After losing my center nut from my BBS RS coming back from Ultimatedubs I've brought a new set from German
I've installed a set of opening front quarter windows
And a polished dip stick holder

car looks stunning in the photos, well deserved trophy

Absolutely lovely car, love the attention to detail on the engine bay!

It's like a dream!

Cracking thread, a real inspiration, when I get round to starting my project again end of this year, Ill be using your car as the bench mark.  

I've not updated for a while its been a good summer picked up a few trophys along the way and meet new friends.



So now show season has finished its time to work on the car again this year the cars having a full respray a bit more smoothing of in the engine bay and more chrome and polished bits added.

Good luck with all the new wok but did it even need it  

Massbad69 in my eyes it needs it but im like you a bit fussy and it needs a bit more smoothing lol how's the corrado going

I'm not fussy 

Vr6 has got £1k worth of bits waiting to go on thru the winter for things that didn't need changed, maybe I am fussy

Bodyshop on Saturday for the 2 rust blisters and dings.

It's a decent car so far

Seen this beautiful mk1 at a few shows and love it. The paintwork always looks perfect and quite surprised its going in for a repaint. You must be a perfectionist haha.

So love this car.

Don't know what's more impressive. The car or that beard. Excellent thread.

Engine back in


A few bits that I have had chromed






Wipper motor rebuilt

Steering rack

Drive shafts


New webbers with new linkage kit


A old cam cover I brought
