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.

I just had a VWWC visitation.
Too dark for photos but
Josh, Jarred. racerachy, waterboy and waterboy snr (waterdad?) were just here.
Just departed my driveway in a blaze of tyre smoke, squealing tyres and the unmistakable aroma of mouldy Mk1 interiors.
A total of 4 Mk1s and a Mk3 in the drive, quite a sight.
Fixed a loose wire on Josh's car and topped up the oil a bit.
Should be a good Golf turn out at DOVW this year.

Pete
was an awesome night, the cruising with Jarred and Rach was really awesome, nothing quite like the sound of 2 mk1's side by side at 6,000rpm
props to Pete that it ran like this without all the usualy niggles that come with engine conversions!VW: it aint just a car, its a way of life
