well as the title says ive bought my dream car which is a 1983 mk1 golf 1.5gx 5door and its going to be my first car and no im not one of these teens that buys a classic car and wrecks it,right now for some history on it,well i bought in december for £900 with no tax or mot which i thought was a fair price considering a gx is rarer than a campaign gti and since buying it its had a weber carb put on it with a k&n filter and when i bought it it had hotuning coilovers on it and mk2 g60 steel wheels but the wheels have been swapped to my dads mk1 cabriolet tarantula 9spokes which suit it rather well and im currently refurbing some very nice oldskool 7x15" zender sport 5spoke fake split wheels aswell to put on it but the best bit about the car is the period perfect britax sliding vinyl ragtop which has seen better days as all the headlinings torn and it was leaking(which was'nt me),the car also had a slight mishap with the last owner when the bonnet flew up and dented the roof which i have been told will be an easy fix but its running a rather ratty looking primerd bonnet just know which strangely looks good against the meteor grey paintwork and before anyone asks it will get painted as my plan is to keep it as a daily driver that i can take to shows and maybe win a couple of trophys with but ideally id like to find all of its last owners and find out more about my little mk1 like the condition when they bought it and sold it and so on but its a definite keeper(i could'nt live with out it)
i'll get pics up soon
cheers marc
ps: any of its last owners on here?
