Thread: my 1.1 golf

  1. #1

    my 1.1 golf

    not even a c as poverty a spec as you can get I came accross it whilst looking for a mk2 1.3 for my at the time teenage sister for a first car. This lhasa green mk1(strange in itself as the colour was never available for the model came already fitted with a 1.3 and a 5 speed conversion and with intergalactic 198,000 miles. Appearing solid I bartered the guy down as there was a couple issues with brakes and tyres and tags etc and we agreed a deal. Filling out the forms for transfer and checking the paperwork out the car had remarkably only done up to 48,000miles when the guy fitted the 1.3 and wishing a rev counter swapped out the dials for the rev equipped non-mfa 1.3 dials...immediately adding 150,000 miles but got me a good mk1 for my sister










    but she decided she didnt like it

    so I kept it

    stole the suspension and wheels of my jetta coupe(started an unfortunate trend here )minus 50 springs and renault turbine wheels fitted with 165/50x15s

    wasnt low enough though so using some of the funds from selling my passat estate I bought some fk highsport silverlines(also fitted some tinted indicators,gave the front plate a kick and gave it a clean




    bought some OZ executives,2 piece split rims after an exhaustive search,loved these wheels forever.They came in 7 and 8x15" sizes in a bmw e30 fitment(also painted vw racing green)




    fitted gti spec vented 240's


    and a full stainless


    never air ride


    basically this is the car im working on mainly just now so rather than spamming up the forum with multiple build threads of my current cars ill fill you in on this one

    Man that looks unreal.
    I prefer the renault wheels and that colour looks brilliant.

    Keep up the great work.

    Clean as hell! I love those seats, as well as the Turbines and the colour!
    You've done well building a unique MK1.

    Welcome!

    blew up the 1.3 carb box and found a 1.3 digifant with 5 speed from a polo gt,fitted it plus...


    still have the full oe interior

    and got the wheels on






    got it to a show without it grenading




    the distributor on the 1.3gt engine broke so I fixed it


    fan cowling now changed for black


    decided the 240's were not up to the KR(its lightened and balanced,runs cams and a ported head and inlet,four branch stainless and 2.5" system)so stole the jetta's 285's(and technically the engine was for my jetta as well )

    black bits


    swapped my old porsche splits from my passat for these rs 071's


    but they were a bit of a state although they came with 2 and 2.5" stainless dishes


    cleaned them


    and fitted them


    then sorted these out


    and got new bumpers
