MK1 Golf (not ebay, private sale thats not mine)

[jayjay]

this car is a bit of a bucket. looks like a mk2 from the front!

mk1.5? you could buy a mk3 with p/s, a/c, airbags and rego for that much!

looks like it has mk 2 bumpers.

I'll owe you a beer if you can find out the exact build date off the tag for me

Free beer, Sold!! (even though i do work in a bottle-o )
nar, ill try get down there and find out, anyone else got any thing they'd like to know while im at it?

[dylan8]

well...
its registered as a 76, build date is 12/77 and chassis date is something 78.
correct me if im wrong, they are normally single carby, where as this one has been swapped to a twin.

twin throat or actually twin carbies?

They originally came with a single throat carb, twin throat carbs (probably a weber or similar) are a cheap and rewarding upgrade for a 1.6

[Jarred]

Nah, not on hand really. Thanks anyway for all the research. I'm not interested in it though.

still a beer for you next time you're in town!

No worries mate, even for a town where VWs have only just been discovered in the shape of MK5+MK6s, its defiantly not worth the 3k
