    Thank's
    They are just stickers, i'll try to find someone that can make me some 3D like "dome effect" ones, because the originals aren't flat as my stickers are...

    All i have is these pictures,
    the first 3 pictures where taken when i had 195 tires in the front (one week later i changed them to 165's to get the effect from the pictures above)
    and then the other ones where taken this summer, when i made the trip from Paris to Porto (Portugal), so i had to rise up the car height for the trip




















    For 2015, i'll be running with the ATS Typ5 that i have yet to refurbish and also next year i'll have a friend make a custom 3 piece set out of some BBS Mahle
    Engine wise, i'm thinking of changing the engine to make it more reliable, but still thinking about it...

    red/gold is such a winning combo!

    Now, time to show what you have under your bed, i guess they're four and they're round too :P

    Time to lay some rubber around those ATS and i don't know, drive them here?
    So stoked to see everything together!
    Can't wait for August ... feels like Christmas came earlier

    Hopefully i will be able to get around it and take some good shots of it!
    They'r actually next to my desk , but they are still in the colour that they came and i don't have the time to get them right till august.

    Pic of my other set:

    Thank's! These MTi are quite rare and they give a more old school look to the car

    i love the red colour in combination with the yellow headlights.
    Keep it up
    Thank's! I also have some white ones, but as you say the combination of the red and yellow is awesome. France does have some advantages

    From a guy that bought it new in '79, then moved out of the house of his parents into Paris, and left the car in the garage. It has some bumps and scraps, but globaly it's quite good.

    As wrong as the first time you said it.

    Thank's for the advice on the wheels and the help you gave

    Major update to this project, the wheels are in place and i went to VW Days with some buddies from Portugal





















    I have a ton of things to do to get ready for a road trip (2000 miles), currently refurbishing a 5 speed gearbox, waiting to jump in, a 4-2-1 staineless steel manifold, new drums and brakes for the rear, new suspension arms with all the bushings, new sensors everywhere and other misc things. A lot to do and 1 month to complete it
