Lady Driven MK1 | Friday with Faye from All Girls Garage

[@HumbleMechanic]

Love it! I met Faye last year at SEMA and she is the real deal

[@FayeHadley]

Thanks so much for inviting me to guest your channel, what an honor!:)) Stoked for the next video!

[@timpaulo7582]

That's an awesome v-dub.

[@2secondslater]

Gained a new subscriber to your channel, well done on taking up being a mechanic, need more women in the industry, also, great little car, Faye, nicely done. 👌

[@TheCarCrazyGuy]

Nice build Faye!

[@FayeHadley]

Why thank you! It has been a crazy journey and I am so stoked for whatever comes next :)

[@pskauto6798]

Was that a purposeful shocker while shifting ? Lmao

[@rbspider]

I had an 84 Lincoln mark VII and something was always broken on it. It broke weekly, slept in it while on the way back from New York when it stopped running going down hill in Connecticut. Several times engine lost oil pressure on the Mass Pike. I kept driving and made it back to Tyngsboro. Engine had to be replaced after that trip. $9000 dollars in repair in one year. Transmission line blew on 295 near Worcester. Power steering line blew on 95 near New Haven . Fuel pump went when I stopped for food on 84 in Danbury.Loved that car.

Clicked for the MK1 content, stayed for Faye AND the RHD MK1 content.

[@FayeHadley]

Ah! So sorry to mislead you , but the video was recorded on selfie mode and I forgot to swap it over! I wish she was RHD, but not yet! :(

[@mikejf4377]

Loved this video, very refreshing to see a MK1 and see someone that is that into it. Awesome job!

[@FayeHadley]

I have another completely different and super badass mk1 coming up for a future video on this channel :)

[@kyleharm5024]

@@FayeHadley My 88 scirocco "16v" actually has a obd1 aba in it too and now I'm glad it does cause it runs awesome and is quick. Way cheaper and more reliable than the 1.8 16v cis and it's only 10hp different haha. The previous owner put a brand new TT exhaust on it. My vw b4 this was a flat black 95 gti vr6! It was bored to a 2.9 and had a 272 TT cam I think and had high.comp JE pistons and I made a full catless exhaust Haha and it sounded awesome. I frickin love my scirocco now and it's not as fast as my vr6 but it's more fun and nimble definitely. I want to keep it forever 😍

[@kyleharm5024]

@@FayeHadley your cars awesome I really like it! How did you lift it?

[@vwgolfman7953]

Mk1 definitely has soul and so do you it’s nice to see you keeping the passion alive 🤘😎👍

[@kidghost7628]

I loved to hear your story of how you started but it's also so cool to see where you're at and how much you've learned I used to have a 1979 rabbit a 1983 GTI and 1984 GTI ..a 2004 GTI ..2008 GTI ...2010 GTI.. 2012 GTI...2013 GTI...2015 GTI..2018 GTI.. VW 4EVER! AWESOME VIDEO!

[@FayeHadley]

Thank you so much!! :)

[@brotherbrian1]

Good job Faye! Nice to see your brand growing and getting more recognition.

[@FayeHadley]

Thank you!! :))

[@alecsimmons1120]

Faye is a legit HOTT BOX! 🔥🔥🔥

[@pnrcomps]

Inspiring Faye! Awesome car! awesome story! Good luck!

[@andreashauser2431]

I really enjoyed your video and story about your car. I can totally relate to it. I have an 83 GTI that my Dad bought new and became my first car. Long story short, I still have it and always will. After 230k miles, I took it off the road for three years in the late 90's and also ABA swapped it (along with many other mods/refurbishments). I'll admit it is a bit of a garage queen these days, but when it sees some action, I drive the wheels off it like I always have.

[@FayeHadley]

That is so badass! Wow, I wish I could say that Gaia has been in my family since new....

[@Bawla187]

This is so awesome. These are stories people need to hear. I want to project an mk1 or mk2. Thanks for doing this 👍🏿

[@cuttlepods]

That has to be the cleanest MK1 I've seen.

[@FayeHadley]

Wow, thank you!! Haha if only you knew though! I hide her blemishes well. In reality, my driver's side door is falling off, 3/5 wheels are bent, she's due for her timing belt, and has an epic leak when it rains... BUTTTTTT I STILL LOVE HER TO DEATH!!!!!

[@nahfamimgood]

that can not be true. Its sick for sure and all mk1 owners for the most part have gone through her exact story but this cant be the cleanest mk1 you have ever seen lol

[@SuperDumbfounded]

Always refreshing seeing women work on cars. my gf has a cc and loves getting her nail broke on it...lol

[@nicosingarum3727]

Love the video! My first car was a MK1 Rabbit. I can relate so much!!

[@bryonlippert5530]

A star is born

[@gmans7859]

Great Story thank you for sharing. Look forward to the next. I understand just a little bit better now why my brother gets cross with me when I say 'lets find you another car'. He IS all about his Fox Wagon.

[@autobahnf1]

Takes me back to my second MKII GTI ('92 8V), a lot of lessons learned and trial and error =)

[@leeholden8112]

Sweet converted baja golf 👌

[@PaulBeetge]

@Faye Hadley I find your video refreshing. I find you enchanting. And your story inspiring. I drive a VW Scirocco. I also drove a VW Polo GT. The other cars were different makes. But i have always loved VW.

[@seathrunmagaoinghous4119]

awesome my first was a mk1 with cb and off road rally set up

[@takeomack2782]

Fantastic video!! ❤️

[@kenj.8897]

The best video ever

[@FayeHadley]

Awwww 😀 thank you!!

[@Murphman74]

Girl power! Love it.

[@las0027]

Are 020 transmission's interchangeable? I have an 84' Rabbit conv. base - Mexico Built.

[@rogermorits5415]

that Rabbit is Badass !!!

[@oldraventwo]

Right on. Some new content. You'll have to do a second part and show us more of the mods you've done to the mk1.

[@m6h24]

Great video

[@paranormalextract4976]

Nothing more attractive than a vw girl 😍. Awesome video and car!!

[@tunedub]

It’s refreshing to see a humble non-bragadocious VW feature! Faye, I love your MkI! I haven’t seen anyone run S1 lamps in years! And that stance 😍 I’m sending this to my VW girl friends!!

[@michaelkitchenmaster6785]

Now that we have the turbos out you can actually see, where the impeller.

[@chrisroop]

Love the lift on the car, did you use a kit?

[@FayeHadley]

Nope! Lots of trial and error and about 9 months of dealing with various degrees of forward or reverse rake 🤣 finally nailed it though without any sketchy spacers or anything!!!

[@chrisroop]

Cool

[@garragol1]

You are AWESOME, just subscribed to your channel.

[@FayeHadley]

Thank you so much!! I appreciate that!

[@garragol1]

@@FayeHadley Where in TX are you? I'm in las cruces, NM. I need to put back my VR6 2.8 but wanna turbo it.

[@vernm6189]

I think your just a little cooler when I saw your right hand index finger ring was an open/closed wrench (5/32?) , I haven't seen that since the 80's. Purple looks good on U and you give me a bit of hope with the Girls/Women working on Car's today. Your Cute , Funny , and your a Star if you didn't know it! I don't let many people drive my car but would make an exception for you since I see you can drive a manual shift trans. It would be old school car meets today's Women Mechanic. Spread the Pixie Dust

[@mikemays5444]

Omg 😍😍😍

[@FayeHadley]

:)

[@DubsALoT93]

How many other Mk1 owners were forced into the mechanic field? I know my ‘78 did it to me haha

[@theedge5584]

If i lived in Texas id volunteer to be ur camra guy lol

[@robertoliveira2062]

Glad to meet you👍🙂. I really really like the color of your soul mate car. What color is it?

[@FayeHadley]

Thanks! It's the base layer (single stage only) for the Scion tc/FJ cruiser cement gray. I was inspired when I worked at the Toyota dealership!

[@renegadomota]

Very cool series! Awesome car! Just a thought: don't say "like" so much. It's annoying. At least for me, a non American

[@PaulBeetge]

Who gives a fuck

[@doomsayer559]

I'm glad I bought VW now 🤤🤣

[@Elnenetgn]

The perfect girl doesn't exi... Wait a second!

[@kluwe801]

Can we build my Mk2 VR swap together 😍😍😭

[@FayeHadley]

Hells yeah! That's what I do for a living :)

[@jakioran3461]

😍😍

[@oooooo3231]

women are known to be better at many things such as working on cars. they catch on faster and notice more details vs men with the same level of experience. men have way too much ego once they get their experience down vs women with the same level. i would definitely hire one vs a man once i find a local one with the same passion to their work as i do.

[@vpstylee]

Texas plate, What part of Tx?

[@FayeHadley]

[@vpstylee]

awesome, see you at harvest?

[@jonnyboy2504]

Low key ......... hella fine though

[@joewontwice]

I'd let her work on my car

[@FayeHadley]

Thanks! Glad I made a good first impression haha! Some of my customers see my car and think I am not successful because I drive such "an old car" ... :/ but I see it as lending to my credibility that after over 400k, she's still at it!

[@hackneo64]

Nice car, my mk7 got destroyed when I got hit by a mexican without a drivers license.

[@hafidrodarte3135]

yeah same here but it was some asshole white guy racist....funny huh
