Satchealous Garage Mk1 rabbit

[TheEgyptianMissile]

Coming along great!

[aaron22]

you gonna clean up some of the plumbing while you're at it?

That's the plan. Charcoal/emissions stuff is removed, carbs will replace all the CIS bull shit, brake booster is removed and I'm running a vacuum advance saab distributor to delete the ignition control unit. Should be a fairly empty bay...gunna have to trim down a lot of wiring.

Tiny bit of progress today





Probably going to move the rabbit out of the garage tomorrow. Buddie's e30 is coming in for an M50 swap:

That is all.

getting there!

Thanks

Made my master cylinder adapter today so I can delete my brake booster. Running the stock booster bracket but with a plate welded on. Just have to shorten the pushrod now











Not too pretty but it'll work.

Finally got the rabbit back into the garage and did some work. Made a big decision tonight...cut out the rain tray:

I don't know too much about these cars, but my uncle has one and he said he did a dual carb setup on it....weird

Thanks. The scirocco was a cool car. It was running an aba block and jh head so it had some nice compression to it. Not a ton of power but pretty peppy and a ton of fun to drive.



my buddy ended up selling it for this though:

[aaron22]

So I went out to grab a couple parts from a guy today and ended up coming back with these!



13x7 and 13x8 Revolutions in what looks like et0 The guy also threw in a ton of spacers and hardware



Fronts are on a 7mm spacer right now to clear the brakes.



Pokes a bit much right now. But by taking a couple mm out of the spacer, adding a touch of camber and maybe a fender pull, it won't look as crazy



Rears fit super minty

[Oxer]

yes.

[Semu]

ohh yes.

[aaron22]

Spent most of my day sanding down wheels. Who wants to buy my exims??



I've still got lots of welding and grinding to do before paint
