so have owned this for a while now, think about 3 months.

Used to roll on cutties and cruise with a decently powered 1.6L 8v engine.

Have since done a lot to it :)

1976 Golf Mk1 4 door

Body
GTi Flares
GTi Front Lip
GTi Quad headlight Setup
Badgeless boot.

Suspension
Spax Lowered springs all round (about 2.5inch ish drop)
Some German made shocks, Bilsten maybe? ill have to look later.
GTi Factory Front and rear Swaybars

Wheels
Speedy 15x7 with 205/15 rear, 195/50 front

Brakes
GTi Vented rotors up front with bigger GTi calipers.
Stock rear drums

Engine
1.8L
32/26 weber
Electric Dizzy
Extractors into a 2" system
4 speed

Interior
Sports Wheel
Unknown front seats (only got drivers side one in so far
Volts and Oil PSI gauge in console
Pioneer headunit, 2GB usb stick with tunes
Fusion 4" speakers in Carpeted Dash
Axis 6x9's in parcel shelf (need to mod new shelf to fit them)

Havnt opened up engine as its how i bought it, but most likely lightened flywheel and a HD clutch!

Goes really well for what it is, need to finish off engine install as ive just put it in and havnt got it going, but engine was in a donor Mk1 i bought, and it went hard :D

And here the pics, its bloody dirtee!!, havnt driven it in over a week due to new engine, and suspension mods ect.
