Beautiful car. Love the mud flaps. The dash looks to be largely uncracked.

And I agree keep it stock - gotta love that '70s styling.

How much you reckon to convert it to a manual? i prefer man but probably should keep this car completely original.

So original.......IMHO it would be desecration to convert it.

have you ever driven a mk 1 auto (stock)? I'm pretty sure there is good reason to change it if you know what i mean.

Besides, it can all be done to look factory anyways, and use all factory setup. so it's wouldn't be modifying it in a sense.

as for the conversion it'self.

Need the new box of course, manual linkage setup, manual "pedal box" which hangs off the steering column, which I think get's changed. all in all, it's a fairly complex, but probably worth it, esp if you are handy with a spanner.

alex, (intesnsm1) had an auto mk 1, that he was going to convert, so he might know a bit more..?

Will let you know how i go but it seems to drive OK (except when i test drove it, it ran out of fuel lol) and it definitely wont be a daily driver anyway

Will be driving it back from Geelong to Melbourne on Saturday so that will give me a better idea. Besides it only cost me $1000 so probably keep it as is for now.

Cheers guys
