I like it a lot!
Get a nice spray, and your on the way!

the beige was getting too much to keep looking any good so a random decision, 35 pounds worth of paint 2 mates and 1 hour later and this happend

looks 314653217426598123564891723654192 times better imo

lowered even MORE now, now i can lean a penny against the splitter.

looking for a bigger engine to go into it. like a 1.6/1.8 carb. how easy is the swap? is it just a straight swap?

or do i need to change anything apart from the actual engine

Hello there buddy!! I might be able to help you on finding an engine! My friend has removed a carbed 1.8 from a mk1 cabriolet. Hes putting a 20v Turbo in his cabriolet (I know what a waste). Also this weekend alone I witnessed a mk2 8v GTi engine slot straight into a mk1 Golf. I cant see any reason why it wont just drop in obviously you'll need new accelerator/clutch cable. Was put up here for £200. If your interested message me and haggle a little if you want. And Ive driven this cabriolet and it went like stink!

Im sure one of the guys/girls on here will be able to correct me on the above if I am wrong.

Car looks great man
