'Ow Do.
« on: 13 December 2004, 07:56 »
Hello. finally got out from underneath VWs to stick something in here.  Im currently in the process of swapping my daily driver Sciroccos 1.8 carb with a 1.8 16v motor :wink:.  Sick to death of that naff pierburg thing :angry:! Just need a fuel pump now to get her up and running again.  So if any one has got one from either a 1.8i scirocco or mk1 golf give us a shout, cheers.

My other pride and joy is my '79 Golf GTI which has been 7 months in the making so far.  Started life as a mars red gti with suntop bought whilst out on the ale for ?50 and now has been reshelled into a 1.5diesel rabbit from California :cool:, swapped to right hand drive, had full uk spec from end fitted and the rear us sidemarkers removed.  Loads of small differences only a true mk1 nutter would notice the difference.  Hopefully have her finished in time for the start of the show season next year :grin:.
Need chrome bumpers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help!

Anyway, must dash, need to ring a man about some twin 40s.  :evil:

Welcome to the site, you can load some photos into your own gallery on this site, you get 2mb of space. Just click gallery at the top of the page then upload picture, get a digital photo on your pc and browse to it, upload, jobs a good 'un. Admin will have to authorise first so you wont see your photos straight away.  :smiley:
