October 23, 201015 yr comment_477550 Hey thought i would finally put up a build thread for my Golf. I brought it to use as a daily and as something a little bit different. Ive had lots of different sorts of cars and i wanted a bit of a challenge this time to make something i thought was pretty lame into a cool car. 1976 MK1 Golf Cabriolet New soft top (YUK) cost $2500 hahahaha (it was on when i brought it) Standard 1.6 4 speed Since I've had it i have: - GTi front Lip - GTi Flares - Coilovers - New steering wheel and boss - Painted Grille and badge - Fender mirrors (being changed to different ones) p.s. most people will hate these but I've always had them and its different. - Painted wheels black (still need new rims) - Painted rear section of 'tray' - Some random pin-striping - Tidied up interior - Removed rear badges Future plans are to convert the car into a little ute by making a home made hard top, rear window and tray as i don't like the soft top. They way i will be able to have it as a ute, convertible or soft top if i want. Heres some pictures from start to where its up to now. Last one i test fitted my sportmax on there, 15x7 15p front and 15x8 0p rear, fronts were perfect but back offset is just too low. Haven't decided on what wheels i want, might stick with a set of 13's as i think 15's are a little big? What do you guys think? First day i got it (removed bling hub caps and a bunch of ricer shit) Painting the back Pin-striping Coilovers, flares, lip, mirrors Without top and rear lowered 15mm more (where it is now) Test fitting wheels: Edited October 23, 201015 yr by RA28GT Report
