My GLS green manila 1980

Here is my GLS 1980.

Engine: 1272cc Type GF
Transmission: 4 speed
Distance traveled: 94'600km
First registration: 09/14/1979
Color: Green Manila (L63Y)

This car was parked for 2 years before a garage. I have bought 8 April 2011 with the control carried out the same day. For now, it is still all original. Here the next day after a major clean and polish:

Hi and welcome...Absolutely mint !!!!!!.....Superb condition if i say so,nice to see one so clean and original......Guess you are going to keep it as it is with no major modification?

Lovely, great find!!

Hello,
Yes, she'll just get the shock absorbers adjustable for height, and a set of wheels 8 * 15. I'm looking on the internet to pay me RML Snowflake.

The people before me she had died 2 years ago. It was an old gentleman who had bought it new in September 79.

I create the topic on my 78 GLS red tonight.

Good acquisition. But yours is one of 1981, produced late 1980s with large rear lights and meters squared. As inside, I have a Van Dyck. But you've got a gazelle brown. Is it the red metal indiana (LA3V)?

Mine is registered in november 1980 in Munich. Of course is the 'change' model. (maybe rare ;-) hehe) I will take a look at the colour and tell u. Thanks for info. I know a lot about aircooled VW's but nothing about waters…

Ohh a value added is that the 1st owner have all bills since he bought it with EVERITHING he has done on it. I think it's a sacrilege to drive it sometimes hehehe. But it will fit some nice chromed 16" fuchs and some lowered job HAHAH.

looks awesome

A very nice original Golf

im loving this, very nice!

So far its evolution:

-Raceland adjustable dampers :/ (I won a contest, the first prize was a set of raceland)
-Pirelli wheels 5.5 x 15 ET38 with 165/45/15 tire
-Jealousy chest (in French sector accessory is called like that. If you have the name used in English, I want to know him)
-Driving gti
-Speed ​​selector Gti
-4 grille lights, with yellow optical
-Logo grille GLS
-Temperature gauge coolant

And of course all the mechanical wearing parts changed

Here are some images of his current condition, ready to stay warm for the winter until 2014

Gorgeous MK1 you've got there. Lovely to see them still going in all these different places
