Hi Josh and welcome to the forum. Nice looking MK1 you have there. What's the plans for this summer?

I had an account prior to this one but it wouldn't let me sign in so i just made another!
and thanks mate!
Trying to sell the BBS off it and hopefully get some nice uncommon splitrims i can get it lowered on.
Ill post up pics another time of all the interior build etc i have going on!
Had this car about two years and its been a constant rolling project where i put 90% of my wages into it!
Love driving it and Love owning it!

Think an ABF may be in the works this year too!

Josh you might have had issues due to the forum changeover. JellyBelly or another GInner might be able to help you retrieve your old account mate.

It seems incredible in the pictures!!! Go on with the ABF, I'm doing the same with mine but I coldn't wait for the summer hahaha

wow im liking this

Managed to get myself a set of Work equip 01's To go on as im trying to sell the BBS at the moment, But i don't have enough posts on here to sell!

Heres what i've done with the Interior of the car!

Well when i say "Done" They're in the process of going in!

Gotta wait for the snow to eeze off so i can take it to the bodyshop get the arches rolled and get them painted!

Tell me what you think!

Nice car. It must have come out of the same garage as my old mk1. It's number plate is SVP515Y and is still about somewhere…

Ill be on the lookout!

Just did the Reg check looks like its still on the road mate,
"Red Golf GTI, Registered 08/04/1983" Older than mine!
Mine was registered 10/06/1983.

Nice pics. That steering wheel looks    

Thanks mate!

It's from an american company' http://griproyal.bigcartel.com/.

Forgot to mention a little mod i did.

I linked my sidelight bulbs to my indicator unit to get daytime running lights,

You can see them in my signature!

Yeah, I've heard the mk1 is still going.  When I found out it was red, I was quite surprised, because when I had the car it was black!  I always keep my eyes peeled to see if it is for sale.  I'd really like to have it back.

Love the woodwork in the back mate,very different 

This looks sweet Josh I always fancied a set of those Recaros when I had my tintop, they just look so OEM 

JESUS!
I DO NOT FEEL SAFE NOW GavB95!

Never took that into consideration when building it, I dont think will slide straight into my seats, well i hope not!

Richie, What shows you at this year bud?

Josh.
