Finally- mk2 deam begins

[mk2DREW]

message sports racer he was parting out his crashed mk2. i grabbed some wiring off him couple of months ago but he still might have the wiper stalk or even the whole unit (wipers and blinker stalks)

[mk2DREW]

ooh genius! i have one on the way already, although will definitely ask if this one buggers up aswell

Made me laugh, but in that nervous way of sympathy because I am ham fisted and just a likely to the same!

Mine had an axe put through it when the policeman couldn't move my car after the accident.

Note to everyone: If you smash your car leave the ignition key in so the steering wheel can still be turned. Axe went through the dash as well.

Hahah that seems to be the way i'll be approaching the golf in general from now on- i'll be adopting a nervous hopefulness every time i go to turn the key

Thinking of removing the arches/bottom trim of the beast. I like that look, although is it as easy as it sounds? And is there anything I need to do?

this is what I'm after

Also putting a small/ mk1 style bumper on the back, any idea how that fits? Easy fix or not?

Cheers

if you do, i'll buy it all off you haha

get onto the golf mk1 adelaide fb group and talk to Josh, he's pulling all the small bumper stuff off his car and turning it into a big bumper haha

[mk2DREW]

ha! cheers matt, will do

[Matt P]

ps fairly easy to get the flares off. Drill out the rivets holding them in the arches and they should come off.

very serious about my offer haha. Funny story but the flares and front/rear bumpers was the reason i bought that car in the first place haha. They were supposed to go on my black one. When i got it home i couldnt bring myself to do it and fixed her up

[mk2DREW]

Hahaha cheers Matt, yeah I'm not sure if I'll end up selling them or not, I'll see how I feel when they're off and go from there
