Got my Golf today!! Now the work starts!!!!!!!

Yeah sure, but I am not going to be finish for a while. I have to get the body sorted out to stop it from rusting and to get the bigest part done before I can get my new engine in, new running gear etc. I am still deciding on the colour of the car which I am struggling with because I can't decide between the original or doing something different.

Hey guys,

Haven't been on for a while. Can anyone give me websites for parts etc for the MK1 I have. Don't care if it's overseas or not. I want to start get some things for the car to keep myself busy with over weekends.

What parts are you looking for?

Some are best sourced local, others from Uk or Us.

Time to get a move along!!

[patroontjie6]

Well,

All of the running gear, Full engine kits, a few bits and pieces for the interior and maybe the exterior.

Call GTI Imports in Sydney or have a chat to Peter Shelley at Canberra VW Centre before you buy this stuff from overseas. Best to buy local and they will support you down the track. And you never know what stuff they just have laying about you might pick up for cheap.

Hey there,

I now have two Golf 1's at my parents place. The one already has a 2.0L 16V engine in and a few things changed on it to make it cope with the power. That will be the one which I would work on now. The other one would be for parts etc, and once mine is done we might even do the other one as well with something completely different to what mine would be.
