hey guys cheers for the welcomes, i have a mk1 golf karmann cabriolet at the moment and ive had 2 mk2 golf gti's an a mk2 polo which weirdly i wish i never got rid of nevermind,
any way on to my mk1 cabriolet, i bought it ast year for a measly 800 quid which im sure you guys would agree was an absolute steal (or so i thought) drove it around for a few months noticed the clutch was a little stiff and low and behold on way back from exeter the clutch cable and its retaining bung came straight through the bulkhead, after reading on the interweb i found this was a pretty common mishap so got my girlfriends brother in-law to weld up a plate for me so happy days i carried on .........
then as it was winter i covered her up then as i went to get her read for the mot i started her up and water started pissing out the back of the block so she now requires a new engine...
so instead of doing a half hearted job ive decided to do a little bit of a restore as i think she needs a little tlc so paint off respray and give her a new engine does any body have a mk1 golf engine a 1.8 8v gti would be briolliant if someone has one lying around i will have cash ready and waiting tomorow so if anyone was to make a quick few let me know!!!
also if anybody has any bumpers or trims for the old mk1s please let me know as im after a few little bits and bobs like i said cash ready and waiting!!!!!
