    But no really, I like to look distinguished when I step out of the car. People are like, "wonder what he does for living."
    I just reply, "your daughter, sir." - some dude on stanceworks

    I had fixed half the broken crap but that just meant it was still halfway inoperable

    You have to get those wheels on. I saw you rollin' the other day and you've nailed the "rough, need a lot of work" look.

    I think I need to organise another MK1 meet. Would love to see how you've got the seats set up.

    Awesome looking seats too.

    What are you doing with the ones you got off Nick?

    alright then, long time no talk..

    just spent the weekend in melbourne picking up a 1984 bmw e30 for my little brothers project, was great fun. hume highway should be 130-140 though. Did see an awesome mk1, was wide as hell and orange. looked to be the same sort of code as georges old mk1.

    sump has a crack in it thats spurting out oil, so im going to be pulling that off, running a bead along the crack and building a sump guard. dont want to weld thicker steel on because i feel like i'd burn straight through the metal.

    Also wondering if theres any way to adjust pedal height? the clutch and brake pedals are about 2" higher than the accelerator.
