Old VW fan , New to WWWatercooled

[WRC Mk1]

So had a few little Dubs, both air and water over the years.

Started with the VW Kombi tour of Europe in the early 90's.

Then a few more followed:
99 Passat V6 in 1999.
2010 VW Polo GTI in 2010

and now the VW 4motion Transporter and just got hold of a Golf Mk1 for a few club race events.

Trying to collect 'famous' (and obscure) rally cars from each decade as 'replicas' in a loose interpretation of replica!

So Far

1960's - Orange Mini 1275cc road car / rally replica fairly Standard (UK)
1970's - VW Golf Mk 1 - Pierburg Replica - not started yet. I have the base car. (Germany)
1980's - No car found yet - thinking Alfa GTV or Lancia (Italy) or Volvo 242 (Swedish) ??? remember its all lower budget stuff under $10k
1990s - Peugeot 306 Kit Car (france)
2000s - Renault Megane Sport (france)

So Ok 2 French cars, but both of them are so very quick.

Any way the next project is the Pierburg replica in blue and yellow.

Welcome buddy!
Seriously shortage of rally mk1s in Australia, so very keen to see what you come up with.
The Pierburg mk1 is perfection in my eyes, and a great source of inspiration.
Good luck with it all

Is this the shell you got off Mick in Canberra?

Swap the Peugeot for a Seat Ibiza and you'll have a Spanish representation as well.

And post lots of pictures as you build the Golf.

Cheers
