FIRST WASH SINCE 1992! Barn Find 1980 Volkswagen Golf MK1 GLi Gets its First Clean in Over 30 YEARS!

[@jeffskillman6161]

Very nice early 1.6 GLi convertible with Wolfsburg 3 spoke steering wheel, tunnelled instruments and 5.5J 12 spoke man hole cover alloys, its masquerading as a triple white 1984 GTI but would have had black bumpers, black wheel arch extensions and chrome grill surround. It looks to be a really good condition so you got a good car here. Look forward to seeing more about the car soon.

Was going to comment the same as alot of early ones were updated to look like the newer ones. Needs it's bumpers back to black and splitter and if your lucky chrome grill. It's very straight.

Thank you. Looks so much better now even with my lack of talent

[@FRFRANKIE]

@@Road2Rust Your welcome. I think it looks awesome no matter what. I kind of miss the VW Rabbit I used to have. It was a 1980 VW Rabbit diesel L 2 door brown metallic. Rabbit in the States is the same thing, a Golf.

What are you talking about?..

[@Road2Rust]

Google translate was like “fuck that”

[@markevans2280]

Why did you buy it then sell it ? It’s a really good example of an early mk1 convertible, I didn’t see it on eBay otherwise I would of been interested, how much you sell it for ?
