My mk1 16v ....

[Golfwise]

Don't take this the wrong way but 2 years for a 16v conversion is a bit long buddy.
You 'll be too old to enjoy it soon
A stir might get you fired up to finish it off

G60 wheels? maybe. Nice alternator bracket mod. Looks like a 77 alternator bracket, the kind with emissions control, cut down to make a 16v mount. Now that I like and I`ve got a few in the workshop. Good work. Two years of looking at it is too long. Lets see the thing on the road.
Talk to you soon.

It obviously hasn't taken 3 yrs to build but when a kid comes half way through my model building i had a another thing to focus on, so in saying that i'm gonna get it going.

[Golf Loon]

So, is it going yet????

[DOHCDAVE]

It's going matt if you listen to your msge bnk you should hear it running.
Sat it was running again and sun i actually connected the vac line to the warm up reg and matt's me uncle she had the right press to the fuel dist.
All these bloody hoses didn't see that on sat and the heater hose wow!
i was sure i tightened it, though the water pissing out when she warmed gave me a little fright.
Went down the road for a quick spinn in my dead end street.
Went down the street with an unsure look on its face, came back up the hill with an ear2ear grinn.
still a few things to clean up.vw nationals feel tha bit closer.
Thanks to Loon ur Da man :mrgreen:
Cheers all Dave

Here's that wheel any ideas what the wheels off orig.

[Golfwise]

hooray its going. Good work

[Golf Loon]

Hooorah for Dave. A paid up member of the 16v club. Finally.

I reckon the wheel is off a rallye or g60? Originally.

Look forward to seeing it at the nationals. Dont forget to send me the package back of what you did`nt use and a few $ would be ok

I`m gonna go and listen to the beast on my phone now.

Good work mate, talk to you soon.

[GoLfMan]

well done now go and burn some commodores and ricers will you

[Golf Loon]

Come on Dave progress update.

He needs a fuel metering head guys, as one injector line has bubbles in it and thus the car has a miss. Anyone up that way have one for him?

We wanna see you at the Nats mate, one month to fix everything.

[DOHCDAVE]

it's going :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
