Thanks JV.
Right here we go:
i bought this car locally for 420 quid. Witha carb problem (you know- the high idling and so on) i set myself 130 pound aside to by a new carb for it. After buying the car my Dad didn't want me to drive it as my in-experience could casuee an accidnet if it suddenly over revved.
It had covered 125,000 miles. Bodywork was pretty mint.
Here is picture:
the car was completely standard, and had been well looked after (mostly serviced over at VW in Germany)
Few days later no luck with the problem, but after some help from the forum. i found the problem out, 2 wires had come out of the back of the carb. this has cured the problem, but it still idles quite high. More of that in a minute.
Then i spoke to my mate about the wheels i wanted, i wanted Revolution 5 spokes in black with chrome lip.
And he said his boss had a set sitting in his workshop doing sod all.
So i went to see him. the wheels were in a bad way and needed a good clean but i got them for 70 quid (for 5) with 4 new Yokohoma tyres on!Score!
New what to tidy up the back end, i ordered some red/smoked lenses for the rear, i then debadged it (the whole car)
I took the Driver one of front and rear then went to remove the 'golf' one and realised it left 3 holes. So i took it off and reprayed it in black, same with the big VW one.
the front grill was replaced with a debadged 4 light grill.
Next was the interior, i bought a Mountney steering wheel and boss for it which is now on:
