mk2 golf dt 16v project on the way!

rashcupra · Jul 30, 2007

this is my new project :funk:

im planning to strip the car to the shell and replace all disscoloured broken moldings and window seals ect get all the wheels refurbed, new tyres sort out all the paintwork smooth the rear wiper and badge also have a mental clean inside shampoo the seats and take the floor carpet out and shampoo it, g60 arches big bumpers (front and rear)colour coded mouldings, remove the full beam lamps and debadge grill slamm it on the floor cyristal clear cross hair front lamps, clear indicators side repeaters

then maybe engine convertion not sure
or
clean engine up to the max and tuck away in the garage or maybe a second car run around :shrug:

has loads of spares with it aswell so might get back some more money too of the main price

what do you think?

Awesome choice of project mate, mk2's can look so sweet, hardly have to do anything to em to make em look really nice! Single light conversion would look nice, get the door handles off it, or mayb sum audi 1's?? Would look awesome slammed on the deck with deep dish 15's, proper euro style! Then mayb a 1.8T motor, or vr6 lump lol!!

if you are stripping the shell why not go for a smooth look ?

saves a fortune on new parts and mouldings and looks more updated too

rashcupra · Jul 31, 2007

i will be

will have the holes smoothed over from the mouldings but i ment new mouldings as in window scraper mouldings. makes a huge diffrence renewing window seals window mouldings ect gives it a really clean mint look
