Newbie From Melbourne

[satinoval]

Hey guys, just wanted to say hello, just picked up a series 1 stagea from Adelaide and drove it all the way home to Melbourne without an issue. its the RSFOUR model and is totally stock, rust under the mirrors, shit wiper blades and a hand brake that needs tightening are my only issues.

look forward to having a read of the forum

nice one

im sure a few more will crop up but the cars been looked after by a motorsport engineer since arriving in Australia a few years back and now its in my hands ill probably make a few f**k ups.. get it registered in victoria is my first mission!

what a great car though - wanted one for years and now I have one

welcome.

glad to hear you got the car you really wanted.

get the rust fixed as soon as you can, and stop it spreading.

the other 2 items are easy fixed.

post pics when you can.

hope you enjoy the forum

How it looked in the for sale add... its a great car, needs tracking done asap

After a cut, deswirl and polish the bonnet came up really well, got a fair bit of paint correction to get on with but the interior is now spotless and currently up on axle

stands having cv boots changed, and new rubber for road worthy

next up is a full car detail and underseal..

want a fitted sub enclosure for the boot and cargo liner and net..

just need victorian rwc and rego now

we have a guy in the south east who does detailing cheap for sau dudes. or you doing it yourself?

[satinoval]

do it myself dude

only ever done my own cars.. been a volkswagen for years and still am

heres my show winning polo

and show winning beetle which will hopefully get shipped over some time next year

the stagea is planned to be just a family wagon that I want to clean up.. its fast enough and big enough to do everything - it does need to go lower with some bigger wheels to fill those massive fenders though
