I wonder if thats was your grey mk2 out beside the Rocket Room a few weeks back??

Dont give up on this, it'd be awesome to see a project like this completed in WA. I have no idea on the mk2 vs mk3 shell debate but maybe if you got a mk3 then you can go the vr6 wide track suspension route??

Keep going dude, best of luck to you!

Cool. I'll try my best to find a Mk2 in my local area before resorting to an interstate purchase. Damn freight costs!

I know a mk3 was mentioned earlier but have you thought about a polo or a seat ibiza?

**Water Boy** · 15-01-2008, 09:15 PM

Mate it was a pity about writing off ya Mk2... But i spose there will be a bigger and better base soon

Hey, i may have found a new mk2! Joe up at GOLFWAGEN called me this morning after hearing one of his other customers desperately needed to sell his '91 5-door GTI. WOOHOO!

Its red and has big bumpers of course, but who cares its a mk2 GTI for $4000, right when i need it!
Havent officially bought it yet but looks like a goer. If so, project Golfballs is back on! Still waiting on insurance.
btw, for those of you who wanted pics, there's some of the S3 bits and unloading the car in the "wrecking" thread.
