I'm telling you man, I'm selling mine at a pretty good price compared to those. Think about it.

just cleaned and painted a few bits and pieces, thought id take some pics, cheers.
Looking good, love to see progress :)
If you dont mind me asking how much you got the discs for and where from?
PS. plus the sway bars and struts. ahaha thanks alot !!
Oh... so this is going to be a proper restoration, hey?
Those newly painted parts look great!
yeah man i wish i could do an epic restoration just don't have the cash, so i'm doing it the best i can with what i got
the sway bars/stress bars are genuine mk1 gti - i had them on another car i bought but i called vw for replacement bushes and you can still source them all from vw although they are costly, but if you can get someone to get you trade price they are a bargain.
the front struts are from spax, but they too were also on the other car
the discs i got from a place called hsy autoparts, they sell genuine vw parts at a really good price, so i got them for $105 bucks cause i knew someone there, otherwise i think they are pushing $150, which imo is still really good for brand new parts.i also decided to get new pads/brake hoses so shoud look nice when all bolted up.
cheers.
