haha! u recon the 13s should stay on Wabbit .
the mk1 is all go now, new pump, new points, new plugs etc....think i might invest in a new steering wheel tho ...the std one feels like im driving a bus........
mk2 goes in for the pit inspection tomorrow, hopefully it will be fine...
but we all know what the transport gistapo are like... Mk2 copped a new windscreen and the std tail lights have gone back in too, hopefully the tinted ones go back in tomorow night after work, fingers crossed.

been a bit slack with the mk1 latley because ive been saving up for more goodies.
basicly going to do a warm 1.6 or 1.8 rebuild on either twin or single side draught carbs. Also waiting on some s/h konis too.
however i have fitted some Audi Seats and a deep chin spoiler.

ok, My car (helga) WAS forsale... Got stuffed around a bit by a so called mate who owned the car i was going to get...... i could say allot right now but i will breathe deeply and stay calm. I was told i had first offer on the car...and I offerd a deposit..to that i was told, no thats fine.... I had a fella from Sydney book a plane ticket to come look at my golf on tuesday. Ive just had to ring him and tell him the deal is off..( he wasnt happy).
the car in question has now gone to "Knupflogs" brother, to apparently be used as a "work bus" .....
the car was "delux"s old orange mk1 with 15in BBS rims. koni suspension, neuspeed swaybars, 5 speed box with quaife diff, 1.8 with dellorto carb etc.
damage to front end (light) could have had it for 2g...................
now you feel my pain???????......Friends...hmph! wish people could be straight up with others, and not beat around the bush to get their hopes up.



Just my rant for tonight.....absolutely PI**ED OFF. =(

Damn my old RS and toyo TPG's. We had some fun times. Mallala, DECA, GOR not to mention gorgeschleife. Those rears are f***** from carrying two sets of rims in the back to PI. Scrubbage was insane and we still raced people on the freeway going down

Benny... Welcome to the human race. (Somtimes aka the "Rat Race".) I once thought I was winning the rat race then somebody developed a faster rat. Cars often bring out the best and the worst in people from my experience.
