And a few other random bits.

Assorted sparkling plugs



Leads


This is just in case a replica of my Golf breaks down in 1956



The moral of this lesson is don't take your credit cards to America

Whoa Pete! Just goin thru this thread now too.

I have a '76 3-door identical to yours. Same colour blue, same interior, same early bonnet with non swallowtail rear (factory). It has the old forward leaning 1100 or 1300 motor - i'll check which one.

I'll make a sunday cruiser out of it and put the EV k-jet motor from my old mk2 GTI in it.

Looking good though! Got pics of the rust in the olive one?

Minor Progress, an extractor system from the UK, via Roccodingo in Perth, via Phillip Island and finally in my shed.

(Might make it to Orange too if Preeny beats me to the 16v build)

It's an Ashley 4 into 1 system to put a 16v motor into a MK1 RHD.







Pete

[Preen59]

Niiiiiice.

[roccodingo]

Pipes..

Yours should be in the container leaving in the next week Chris, will be down Caterham next tuesday to make sure.....along with a pile of other goodies...

Roccodingo ( Via blighty )

[Peter Jones]

Small change in direction here, I'm now planning to use 16v MK2 hubs for the bigger wheel bearings, ball joint and more easily obtainable calipers etc.

MK 2 steering arms are in a lower position too meaning I shouldn't have to flip the steering rods over.

From memory the f/end geometry will be ok if your using ball joint extensions as well I think Pete...
