Hmm, I think I'm going to have to risk being banned and say I kind of like them :undecided::grin:
Perhaps I went in expecting worse, but they don't look that bad. Remind me a bit of a Golf with Beetle arches on.
I think finished it would look really good.
-
I'm undecided, but to pull that off it will need some Phat Rims!
-
Not square enough

That's why I think it works, it's unusual.

Zender did square stuff and that was always a bit of a thumbs down from me...

The Escorts rears on this for some reason remind of a 2CV

Way too high up the body, almost meets the bottom of the window.

I mean square as in boxy curve, not an actuall square shape :rolleyes:
-
just nasty :sick:
-
Hard to tell with the steelies on, it may look good with a decent set of rims, but atm it looks shi'ite!!

I do hate lazy listings, would actually like to see this from the front, the rear and the side from a distance.

Not a fan but I am sure you could have one crazy MK1 with that. Rally spec setup!

Nah... it's covered, all you need are some Berg Cup arches and a front valance

Seriously love those 2 Shaun, they look the Mutz Nutz!
Have you seen that MK1 in VW motorsport colours? It's is over West London way and has full race spec, blo0dy quick too!
-
That has just made me want a mk1 even more from those two pictures alone! :cool:
-
Billy's Mk1 looked like those! But puce green! :laugh:
-
Those 2 look niiiiiice but did you miss the scoop on that bonnet??
Not that bad.... :grin:
-
:sick:
-
i like those two, the one with the zenders is rank, and the bubble arches with the front end reminds me of an austin mini

Those are much better than the bubble arches.
I don't think the bubble arches suit the overall 'boxiness' of the mk1.
They look out of place.

that car look an absolute mess :sick: escort cross mk1 golf isnt cool german should stay german its the best way after all :grin:

It's the wheels that give the 2cv Look ;-)
-
^^^^ yeah I think you're right, that combined with a level rear arch.
-
The mk1 looks fine out of the box.

Some subtle additions can make them even better........... this thing is not subtle. :sick:

I quite like it :embarassed:
The angle of the pictures don't exactly flatter
-
The mk1 is all right angles so big round arches just look wrong.
