    Default "Wheres the rest of it?" - MK4 Caddy

    Once upon a time there was a little two door golf. One snowy winter it slipped and fell right into a semi trailer which resulted in it having a massive dent in its top rear corner.

    Stuff happened, she lost some weight, got a tan, you know the usual facelift.
    Alright lets get to the point. So lets skip a few months. I saw selfless of this unique creature on this thing called "The Instagram" you can follow me if you feel like you need to do so @ RBB_JONATHAN

    How I came to owning this unicorn, was because I was getting bored of my daily vr6 gas drinking monster and the 2002 project was near completion so started to look for something to keep me busy. So found the unicorn for sale on "The Facebook". I had to go check it out up close, called up the owner and met up with him a couple days later. I was a little disappointed when I saw what was powering this toy truck. The bed was far from complete, there was no interior what so ever and the worst part was its is terribly slow !

    Alright alright I see you are getting impatient let me throw some pictures at you.






    Sorry for picture quality they where taken with the new model potato type r.

    So not sure what was the plan with this thing of a unicorn most likely more lowlowz and some stance and stuff so them girls can be like "is your car broken?"

    Started this thread in a Starbucks my computer is like white girl waisted and is about to die will keep you guys posted on the development of the build.

    I like it but I'd want there to be a functional tailgate.

    Wait wut?

    Agree with above, and a straight back window would have looked better. Can you get some close ups from the back?

    all coming soon. Coils are maxed out in the back. Since half of it is missing, not enough weight so not much low.
    Hope you get it where you want it in time. Subbed (again).
    needs to be somewhat presentable (need to pass inspection will get to that latter in the thread) and eurokracy is on the 28 planing to drive it there instead of towing it so hopefully it passes inspection !

    Part Deuce: The winter months were coming to an end, so me and my trusty gang of umpalumpas got to work and got to stripping this B*tch down. We looked far and wide, went thru Junk yards and Backyards to find the parts necessary to complete HER.

    The build process was divided into 3 steps:
    Step 1: Finish the truck bed
    Step 2: Finish the interior
    And last but not least…
    Step 3 : Give this attention seeking whore the lowlowz she deserves

    The first 2 steps got accomplished in about 3 weeks… plus maybe an extra month on account of me being lazy and working 2 jobs to fund this money pit of a project.

    Before getting into all the complicated stuff. I noticed that my head lights were looking dim. so i decided to top off my head light fluid container. (and for those of you who don't know i had to get metric headlight fluid… which was a pain to find.)



    Step 1: Here is a before shot (Before botox and plastic surgery)


    The process (Not for the faint of heart)






    And there we have it folks !

    Step 2: Now the interior progress was not very well documented…. so let me lay this down as easy as i can. I fit a mk4 Jetta interior into a mk4 golf.





    (Extra) Between Step1 and 2 I installed a sort of Bozoku exhaust for the lolz and giggles…. and well for Street fred & Scene points of course.


    And finally for the most important part.

    Step 3: Well… it did not go so well. I could not find an affordable set up that would not break or make me cry like a little girl at night. I also was low on cash because i had acquired another car. So i made an executive decision and put the lowlowz on hold and decided to keep the current RICEland setup.(Which was already maxed out)

    So there you have it Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys & Girls, Kids of all age ! The build is complete… For now.





    And guess what ? Just in time for Eurokracy !

    I was able to bring not only the caddy, but also my Bandwagon Daily Driven Miata.

    Armed & Dangerous with both Racekors



    (As you can see both cars are painted gloss primer, the color of all inter-galactic travellers)

    And let me throw some Eurokracy pictures at you guys (At least these aren't horrible potato phone quality)





    But don't worry kids ! lowlowz and much more will come soon ! & maybe a bandwagon miata build thread.
