my vw golf mk1 1977 - 15 year project - almost done!
This is my 1977 4 door MK1 golf - originally silver - Bought it off the owner with a dead engine - was super straight and very rust free (including
the wings and usual spots!!) pulled it apart, got a the paint done, wheels, interior sorted and in to storage is went in 1999 as I work and travelled
Australia. Fast forward to last year when I got a new heart transplanted in (2Ltr EFI) and now just finishing off all the little trims bits and pieces
and fabrication of a dash panel to suit the MK3 cluster and switches..... Almost there!! lol - Keep an eye out as I might have to sell my baby due to
unfortunate circumstances :-( sooooooo close!!
Also I know I am opening up a can of worms here... what sort of ball park figure would you say this car is worth??
