is it a swallowtail version too???

very very cool ride.

p.s. first dibs on your g60 steels :wink:

Nah its not a swallow tail, and as for the g60s i have someone already who might want em but if not ill pm you

I only got this pic and i have still yet to clean the inside… so its still dirty   ops: , and the photo doesnt do it justice.. its mint the matts are there to protect the carpet and as you can see its very dark..

Mmmmmm!

More pics?  Are you taking it to Stan Hall?

Yeah going to Stanford, but back to stock wheels etc no more pics atm sorry

Very nice. Love the interior and never seen those porsche wheels on a mk1 before. Wasnt sure about them at first but they are growing on me fast

Thanks Ross

I have been told there are only 3 known golfs in the world running these.. so pretty different

hello, thought i would post a couple of pictures of the car from the weekend





Came 5th out of 8 in the concours still had a great time

It looked great!  Great to see the car in original untouched spec.  Best thing in the line up regardless of the judges!  What won bytheway?

I think the blue Cabriolet did. Was a wicked show really had fun

Ha Ha! Looks like mine apart from mines a 78 with a blue interior! That is mint matey, absolute gem! Loving those porsche wheels too, never seen em on a mk1, are they an aircooled fitment??

I can't believe how much it looks like mine, especially with the standard wheels, looks like someones finished the resto and nicked it!
Seriously nice car dude! respect.

You were asking about coilovers, tbh, i would go for the cheap ones on ebay, the hottuning ones, me and my mate have a set each and they have not given us any bother, they are actually more comfortable than the FK highsports i had on my polo. But if you do get them, make sure you waxoyl the threads as they can corrode!

    

Cheers man

Yeah the wheels are from an early aircooled porsche 356 but they have a different fittment to my beetle.

Cheers for the advice on the coilies , i went with Gmax in the end as they are still fairly cheapish.

ill have a look out for your car

Cool, cheers dude, the thread is 'project angus' if ya wanna take a peep?

Glad you got some coillies sorted dude, gonna be lookin forward to seeing this one on it's botty!

So if they are early aircooled wheels (different to beetles) what PCD are they if you don't mind my asking??

How did you get em to fit? Adaptors?

Cheers

yeah adapters and new brake drums at the rear, i think they are 4 by 130. But thats off the top of my head..


Project angus, ill have a look at that thread again! Looked a sweet car from what i remember, also zeibarted?

Cheeers

Hello,

Its been a while so i thought I would update. Coilovers fitted in the end. Big thanks to my friend James Cooch for putting in some major, major effort over the weekend. A true hero.




And to badman and bad-dad for lending us the compressors.




Went to Bristol Volksfest with Danny Smith and Tom from Team Wackel Dackel on Sunday. We met on the m4 and were lucky enough to miss all of the storms in the morning. Had a great show and got lots of compliments on the car..as well as a few offers..

Sadly i lost a hub cap on the journey But i am now running baby moons .

But i still had a great time




So pleased with how the car looks.  

Cheers for reading.

Future plans.. New grille ..

Seen this at Bris Volksfest, looks super clean 8)

thanks very much  

Looks lovely  

Whats wrong with your current grille?

Also, what coilovers do you have, and how are they?



Joe

You cant see from the pictures but its faded in places and has lost its colour etc.

The coilovers are gmaxx and so far so good Perfect what what i wanted which is just drop etc.
