    Some people really dont know the amount of hours and pain it takes to reach perfection. Here we have a perfect example of no cut corners. While some continue to slop swap and make exuses for lack of attention to all detail, I believe if we are going to do it, we better do it right.. AMAZING JOB, WELL DONE!

    If I remember correctly, this guy learnt how to do everything on the car himself as he went along including the bodywork and mechanical things and he isn't a tech. So it's really impressive, plus he is a Tasmanian guy so it's good to see our local on show.

    Golf 1 is a so beautiful car and the best golf ever. But what you are make and build here is Amazing!!!!! This car is absolutely "H. A. M. M. E. R." I wish you so much fun with this car and you that you will enjoy every turn. Great work and the golf really nice. Maybe you can make a short vid where we can see this car in action and listen the sound from the engine???!!! All the best for you.. 👍😎😉

    Half of these guys on here ain’t car guys! Some of us like wide body’s, offset wheels, massive spoilers, stretched tires and others are the total opposite. Just respect the hard work this guy has put into this car, until you go and build your own car and empty your bank (like what this guy would of done) then have your say. No one respects other people’s choices, I’m not a fan of the wheels and carbon dotted all over this car! But I certainly respect this guy for this as id never get this far!

    Lets us all lower our heads and collective give thanks to the aftermarket gods for making great gear for our old crap....amen. This has got to be one of the most tastefully built Mk1s ever done. It really has that special appeal shared in common with all great builds that only include enough gear to make it appropriate to the theme. :)
