My first VW, a 1.6 Driver (Insurance in NI is a total nightmare for a GTi of any shape if your under 25!), picking her up next thursday/friday.

Note the "sports tow bar!" :laugh:
Needs a bit of work to sort her out, but mechanicially sound, as is the bodywork is nearly 95% fine. She shall be going in for a total respray in the base black and some sublte bodywork in the summertime. Mostly smooth boot, and Audi handles, something like this I played around with on Dubmodder, especially the two tone widened steelies.

Theres only one rule for this car, everythings comming off ebay, doing her as cheap as possible parts wise etc and then saving for the respray, by Augest she will be a totally fresh looking mk2!! :grin:

:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

That photochop looks very similar to mine! Apart from the front end!
I even got two tone black/silver steelies!!! :huh:
-
looks like a nice one mate, good luck with it and keep us updated with progress pics!!
-
Just a few mods and you will be away.
Thought I would give it a quick photo chop

Good work! The exhaust adds a comedy touch to the bottom pic! :laugh:
-
Looks good, but not the wheels in the 'chop' IMO. Keep it clean, simple and lower than a snakes ar5ehole!!
-
got to loose the mirrors asap but otherwise that looks smart. Your dub modder pic is spot on, and listen to lewy when he says to lower it lots, it'l look class rubbin on its belly!
-
I only had my dinner at work. It took 5 mins to edit the car pics. Wheels were nicked off an impreza so not my choice!!
Did not have time to lower it!! It takes too long 15 mins plus, and I only have an hour dinner. Only did it to give a future prospective to the young golf nut!
I agree loose the mirrors!!
Shamless plug but my PhotoChopped up golf is in "chat nonesense". Apparently people dont like the colour, but has anyone tried to use photoshop and teach themselves??? It is such a bloody hard programme!!

amen to that bud!

Yep, standard 90 spec mirrors shall be fitted soon and its coil-overs ahoy, along with crystal m3 rears, but have interior to sort before i touch the outside.
And the tow bar is staying, I have a little plan for it, that shall set the car out nicely. :laugh:

What are you going to do make a trailor?
Seen mini trailors before and they look the dogs...
Has anyone ever made one out of a golf front end?
-
They are so easy to make, but its easier to make em out of the back end! :wink:
Made one for mate who has Beetle, now has a rear of a Beetle as a trailer aswell! :cool:

Actually something similar to that yes, but it would be some time off. Mostly an idea of incorprating a full size tent, camping gear, gas oven/stove and storage spaces into a mk2 back end. Possibly loosing the roof, and a hinged lid, with the rear end opening up to act as access to the stove etc. :laugh:
I already have a lot of the bits outside from my camping days, so it makes perfect sense to me. :laugh:
-
Going to love to see that! hope you do it!
Looking good, good base car!
btw - been using photoshop for over 12 years now! and i am still finding new things on it :) Great for testing new things onthe car though!
