Re: Howdy all,
I dunno, a MK2 golf certainly wouldn't be chased out of most classic shows. My brother had a MK2 GTI for years, it was a very nice car. I'd bin the wheels and put on some factory BBS ones but that is just me. I'd like to think its a little more special than a bog standard mk2 golf GTi :lol: , also ...

Re: Howdy all,

Re: Howdy all,
Thanks a lot - some very good work there, looking forward to seeing more. You must have been wild about that issue with the paint shop!!

Re: Car Tilter
I built my own a few years back from some scrap steel I had left over, It's a bit ott but I always intended on rolling a few campers with it but have used it on smaller cars, it's basically been adapted down the years as and when required. Started life as some 2"x2" box tubing, http://i14.photobucke...
