1985 MK2 VW Golf (mk3 gti engine)

[360beast]

For sale

THIS WILL NOT COME ON THE ATS CUPS!

£1100 O.N.O

You will have to bring your own wheels to pick it up as the 13" steel wheels it came with won't fit over the front brakes.

MOT is up 25th of July - passed last time with no advisories
Car is on SORN
V5 Present
Loads of Service History

Good Points:

1998 ABF with precut loom and deimmobilised ECU
MK2 GTi 8V gearbox
New front wishbones and Bushes
New front ARB droplinks
Fully rebuilt MK2 GTi rear beam
Good condition interior (apart from front seats have usual bolster wear and padding sticks in your back)
New handbrake cables supplied but not yet fitted
Big brakes on front (not too sure what they are from GTi or G60?)
Pretty much new rear GTi solid discs
VGC 16V radiator
MK2 GTi fuel tank fitted
New Inner CV joint on drivers side driveshaft and new boot on outer CV

Bad Points:

Bodywork is not the best nor the paint, has had several touch ups and has small dents in various places on the body
Front wings need replacing due to rust
7 slat grille is cable tied in place and has cracks in it
Rear arches have rust - new arches will be supplied £35 odd pounds new from VW Heritage
External plastics are fading, I used auto glym bumper gel on them which made them all black for about 8 months
Side trim has fallen off on the passenger side but it is with the car
Coilovers need replacing as both passenger side ones are worn out
Exhaust manifold is cracked so needs new manifold

Work to finish it off:

Bonnet needs notching to clear inlet manifold or 90 spec bonnet fitting
Engine needs wiring in either splicing the CE2 MK3 loom into the CE1 fusebox or a full CE2 conversion
Engine needs finishing off plumbing in
Rear brakes need plumbing in
9" brake servo and 22mm M/C are needed
Speedo cable needs plugging in to the back of the gauge
Fuel pump needs fitting to the tank (access through boot)
Inline fuel pump needs fitting (supplied)
Fuel lines need connecting at both ends
Handbrake cables need fitting (supplied)
Gear linkages need fitting to convert from 4 speed to 5 speed (supplied)
Exhaust manifold and full system need making

That's all I can think of atm so any questions please ask.

Will swap for a Volvo 340/360 plus cash my way

I'd consider advertising it on some of the Irish VW websites. You might get a buyer from there.

try:

www.autostadt.ie
www.vagdrivers.net.

or general websites such as:

www.adverts.ie
www.donedeal.ie

Always people looking for good projects/shells

So when I was told 14s barely clear the standard gti brakes it was rubbish, the original 13s fit over these uprated discs so it now comes rolling on original steel wheels.
