Before I bought my 264GLE, I lusted majorly after a Mk1 Golf. I'm getting to a stage where I can buy a second car, and possibly be able to store it somewhere too. And of course I want to do what I planned years ago before I got my licence, a Mk1 3 door, with a 1.9 or 2.0 TDi on coil-overs with some interior work, a half cage and possibly a Polo Dash or something like that.
However, looking at the prices of them, it's not like with Volvo's where they are a dime a dozen, and I don't know the wreckers for them or the club's either, so I was wondering is the VW Club in Vic supportive of modifying Mk1's, are there members who own workshops and will help out a fellow Dubber if they need parts a bit cheaper then what they sell to the public etc?
Because I'm seriously tempted to save as much as I can for a 3 door, with or without motor, and a mostly straight body with minor rust, and learn to do panel work on it if needed, as well as modifying it's looks a bit.
