Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

          Hi Caleb mk1 Looks great, good to see another one around the area.
          I've been told LS is luxury sport and GLS is graaand luxury sport haha, there's a thread on here about it somewhere.

          heaps of good info on here to help you out with it, any shots of the interior?

                          1981, should have the black plastic bumpers... someone has been modding this thing ??

                          Looking very tidy all the same. would like to see the engine bay tho

                          MMm no front headrests either ....

                          If it aint a MK 1 then it must be a donor car ??

                          Cheers,

                            yer i will get some photos tomorrow. yer the thing is a bit strange. someone sprayed it and apprently put a new motor in it. i think it may be a 1.1lt tho i cant find any engine number or chasis placard so im just getting the 1981 info off the rego papers. i would love someone who knew what they were looking at to have a good perve at it.
