Mk3 Golf GTI, on schmidt's, lowered, G60 conversion

[Rob_g60]

as my corrado corrado is now of the road and will be for sometime, so i need a car, i found a MK3 Golf GTI in black in norwich for £400 has a mot but no tax, its not in the best condition, but for £400 you cant go wrong

so today got started on making it run and look better

1st thing was to go was the front badge



new grill




heres a few shots be fore i got started







brakes were shot so needed replacing





next was a major service



next it was the coilovers and wheels of the corrado and put on the mk3 (all new coilovers will be going on the corrado)











bye bye splitter





by this time it had got to dark to take some more pictures, so will update tomorrow

not to bad for one days work

another update

new steering wheel fitted



new coolant temp housing replaced as it was leaking



throttle body of and cleaned







brakes painted



next was the big job of getting the wheels to fit when lowered, so bye bye arches





kev working hard





we then painted the arches to stop the rust coming through, rears are bonded back on





also fitted the deep splitter

will update tomorrow

[Wayne]

Well that is one way of getting clearance for the wheels.

[Rob_g60]

well today we pretty much finished it of just needs a good clean











Runs good now and in total including the car has cost me £580, so well happy with it

Looking great, especially considering how little it has cost

You need to do something about that back box though
