Dads Mk2 jetta.

[murraymint]

Hiya. Some of you may know that I have a mk2 Jetta, I Havnt started any threads for it before as I Havnt really touched it. I plan for it was to put an abf init but due to dwindling funds I think that's going to be off the cards  . So I think the plan now is low and slow  . Here's some pics of it in its current state.

Its a 1.8 manual.








Bort some cheap wheels and refurbed them for it




And today I cleaned out the inside.

Boot




Carpet


Back seats


Front seats


The main problem with it (and the reason I'm not driving it) is that the gearbox wines in third and fith, I'm gunna put new oil in the gearbox and see if that sorts it and if not I'm gunna take it to my local garage and get them to see if it needs a new box.

Then when that's sorted, tax and mot it, wind the coilovers right down, stretch some tyres over the new wheels and then off to some shows 


Thanks for reading, any comments/ advise welcome.


Cheers
Josh

Definitely a good starting base!

Gearboxes should be cheap and easy to come by if necessary i would of presumed?

[murraymint]

Cheers lads. Found some stickers lieing around


Slamming world sticker was already there.

[leigh_harty]

Atleast stickers can be removed 

Dont see many jettas about especially in good nick, just dont rat her 

[murraymint]

Lol, I knew the stickers wouldn't be a hit 

Dw I won't, worth more not ratted! Do want a respray but don't have the wedge for that yet
