1990 VW Jetta

[street sweepin coupe!]

alright cause im liking the whole mk4 dash look, might try it in my coupe!!

the front seems good to me, but I still think that the rear is too low... but this is just my opinion, and your opinion is more important

I'm curious about the dashboard...

[martinm13]

whatt all did u have to do to the mk4 dash to make it fit?

i trimmed the back so that it wasnt so deep. i took about 4 inches off the back and stopped right before the defrost vent. the stock mk2 dash is insanely shallow. the mk4 one fits side to side for the most part but its so deep that i couldnt reach the pedals hahah and i have long ass legs

also, i started to work on one of the towers tonight. its as low as it will go at the moment because its sitting on the tow hooks. i need to finish welding/grinding/primer tomorrow.






definitely has less reverse rake but im still not happy.... guess i need to cut the tow hooks off

looks great man looking foward seeing it finished

muahaha terrible phone pic but im doin work right now!

nice dash, at least you won't suffer if you will ever get in a crash, cause it will cut off your head instantly

its going to be welded in + the car has seat belts...

1.8T is the shit! Great body work too so far but that red looks Just old and faded (plus i **** red cars, bikes..)

Also i dont get yet in which direction this is supposed to go...

yeah to be honest i looked at the red in the light this morning and don't know if its right . maybe it just needs another coat. it was starting out to be more of a track car build but then i changed my mind. when its done it will all fit together, i really dont want to drive something that has like 6 different colors and themes going on. this is the reason why the mk4 dash and the seats are gone. i feel that what i have planned is going to reflect what the car is better.

new dashboard? mk4 was looking good IMO....


but great work!

IMO you need begger lips to the BBS, and the rar is too low.......I dont like to see the rear lower than the front... keep the good work, nice to see this kind of builds

going to build the wheels up over the winter. im thinking 2" lips in the back and 1" in the front, instead of the .5" thats on there now. the rear is lower because i haven't worked on the front yet. the strut towers are going to get raised as well as some work on the control arms and frame notches.

i hope that bench seat stays, awesome build so far

bench seat is definitely staying. thanks everybody!

BBS's seem to never go out style, Jetta looks good

i wasn't feeling the flat black paint so when i was out today i grabbed something else. i think if i go with this, the centers on the wheels will be painted off white / creme color

This is badass. Love the old hot-rod kinda stuff going on.

Good to see another Canadian on here too.
