MK1 Golf Interior

[sports racer]

The Driver badge is probably a fake. No Aussie car had this badge and anyone importing a MK1 would only bring a real GTI into the country.

The book is rare but not impossible to find and is one of the best car manuals ever written.

Taillights could be original but they made MK1's up to 2009 in South Africa so hard to say how old your lights are.

If you're going to respray then go yellow. There's lots of red ones out there already.

Here's what I want mine to look like.

Hell yeah!



Or even orange

[dublub]

Ahh okay. That's a bit of a let down. Hoping i had a gem [emoji16] they look good so I'm glad anyway. Yeah I'm sliding towards the yellow/sun flower yellow too.

Thanks for the info ^_^

Planning on doing a build thread for the mk1 just getting my ducks in a row first. Researching all parts. And pre planning for rust repair.

[dublub]

That's the one! Was able to purchase it prior to eBay sale as I saw it listed on a different site.

I'm currently in Alexandria but moving up the coast a little but so I can have a proper garage to work out of! Where abouts are you?

A helping hand is always good! How could I say no to that!

[dublub]

Thanks man, I've first got to get a dash and see what it comes with
^_^ still looking for one but I've got a lead on one though!

That's the thing trying to find one close enough to work, but far enough from the riff raff lol.

Done some stripping of the car.

Taking a break and got some reading material to catch up on [emoji15]

Well...maybe...sort of, lol. would be interesting tho check your chassis No. assuming its a 176xxxxxx. I remember reading somewhere of a 'driver' model that had some early options, and i think it may have had a fancy dash with 2 clocks or something unusual, which would explain why yours is missing probs sold off. Your also missing the early 'smoothie' bonnet. Does your rear hatch have vents on the inside at the base?

The swallowtails are pretty special and interesting to read about. If you havent already stumbled upon this page, enjoy. http://www.swallowtail.info/
