Been lurkin' New introduction

[StaticG]

Thought I may as well finally join and start posting, I see a few familiar people here off vww
For the others my names Glynn and I'm currently owning driving and modding a 78 Mk1 Gld
It's an absolute power plant having been Dynoed by the previous owner at a whopping 29hp
none of that really matters to be honest tho
I enjoy driving sooty daily extremely slowly getting strange looks from people wondering exactly where the tractor noise is coming from
Would love to be a bit more involved with the whole stance works family but it's a bit hard bein up here in Queensland
Anyways enough of that il get to the all important pics of the car

Saw your thread on vww, looks awesome man welcome !

[rayray086]

Glynn! Didn't know you sold your A3 already!!

[StaticG]

Hey dude, I sold the a3 about 4months ago or something
About a week after chipping it and putting in the coilovers
Something clicked in my head and I realized I wouldn't be happy with the Audi no matter how low or how much money I threw at it
Then a week later im driving an old ass diesel mk1
And I've been enjoying it ever since

I know exactly what you mean with this, I felt exactly the same way but I still went ahead with it, and now I'm at the point of no return lol. I need to get myself a proper project...

[StaticG]

Yeah, it's like it's missing something
A bit of car character/soul if that makes sence lol,
Yours is looking absolutely amazing though
I got a project for u
There's a mk1 passat wagon up here for $400
Although possibly not the best looking car, it's pretty structurally sound with only surface rust
You know u want it

That sounds pretty tempting actually !!

[StaticG]

I know, if I had more than a single lock up and the BMW was sold I'd probably own it by now
Would be a dope daily for the mrs even If she thinks it's ugly lol

Love the wheels, works so well on it!

Welcome dude, looking forward to shenannigans.

Welcome glynn.
Don't think I have seen the mk1 in its current form, will have to stalk the mk1 section more.
Looks great.

[StaticG]

thanks oxer, shenanigans sounds good, unfortunately none seem to happen up here in qld lol

only fitted the alulines on monday dylan, looking forward to a couple more bits and pieces planned to make sooty a little more unique

[USDMem1]
