    Ok computer is sort of working

    Yesterday was the Rego day, arrived at VicRaods b4 8:30am for my appointment and watched all the kids about to go for their licences zooming round the carpark The que was massive b4 the door was opened but we rocked on in and rolled up to the rego desk, got a really nice man who laughed at my Dad's jokes and wanted to know how my VCE went etc. The man was so nice, he let me choose my rego number so i got the best i could there.

    Cruised around most of last night with my Dad and i tell ya i need to brush up on my driving skills. Iv only ever driven a manual at Phillip Island, Rob Roy or as a paddok basher where the clutch just gets dumped and u dont really come to a stop and have to start again. Lets just say i need to practice slow take offs

    Anyways here is the 4x4 I own...









    The power house 1.8ltr single point injection



    Ok there is some people I really got to thank for getting it to a nice looking standard rego'd car:
    My Dad Bruce for everything
    Mum for feeding Dad and I
    Sean for supplying many parts
    Peter Jones for again many parts
    Oven Bake Enamle Service: The guys there are legends
    Volkscare: Boris and Tracey are a great help
    Burwins Furntree Gully (Spare parts loves me )

    And all you guys of here for parts, kind words and help with my quest getting my piece of junk on the road.

    Congratulations, the car looks fantastic!

    Sorry I missed you on your celebratory cruise last night, Jodie says the car looks great.

    Glad to see all those Vento and GL bits go to good use.

    Those 1.8s are acually a pretty good motor, it's the SPI that lets them down. I have one in my Red Mk1 on a 32/36 Weber and it hammers! (Although I'm sure it's the low ratio diesel box that's providing the acceleration.)

    Great to see another Golf saved and back on the road.
