New to a Mark 3 GT =)

Post by vw-po-low »

As title says im new to the mark 3's. I'm currently running a 6n, on the floor on banded steels, have done for over a year. always on the mark 4 section. Me and my girl collected her 91 GT today. It's her first dub, So i though i better brush up on them.

I think we saved the car to be honest, a young guy who has had to many cars and chavs them up. He had the polo for 3 weeks. So no damaged done by him, ha.

Its Diamond Black. Needs a bit of work, cleaning ect few things to replace.

It already has.

4 branch manifold + straight through system.
G40 Interior
G40 rear lights
G40 Steering wheel
Lowered 60/80
White speedline Alloys.
Badgeless grill
Upper strut brace
Clear front indicators
Clear side repeaters

Things i got today -

New clocks - others are damaged
New Side repeaters - the others a horrid
New Front indicators - the others are all horrible inside
Parcel shelf - the other was knackard.
New headlamps - spare set.
Polo GT Badge (rear) - the guy replaced it with the VW 1300 badge off the beetle.

I'm in need of! -

Original gear stick
Ash trey for centre console
Dash Speaker covers with or without speakers.
Cig Lighter. (we don't smoke but it makes it look better)
n/s mirror complete
Front bumper
Heater motor and ecu cover

And i think that may be it . . . . Lol The list maybe longer but my girl has the list i made.

Question - what fuel are people running their GT's on? The guy put 99 octane in.

Picture time. Please note we've not changed anything on this. Haven't had time yet. Spending next weekend on it.
