I Got me a MK1...yay
« on: 19 February 2006, 16:25 »
finally i have a mk1 golf... :laugh:

it needs alot of tidying up on the outside, but the main thing is
that its not rotten!!!
the bonnet, front wings, and roof need a bit of attention, small dents and scratches
but its all cosmetic.
its even got 12 mths MOT :grin:

So, here are the questions...does anyone know of someone selling..
*small chrome bumpers..front + rear
*chrome wing mirrors
*old skool roof rack
*g60 steelies/ ats cups 15 "
*euro red/smoked rear lge lenses


thats right ...i'm going retro folks..

(pics comming soon)

 :smiley: i'll be grateful for any help and advice.  :smiley:

ps.. what are the offsets for the mk1???? :huh:

I think VAG still sell steelies and they aren't that badly priced either.  :grin:
