Volkswagen Golf Mk1 Build (Ep.37) / STEPCHILD CHANGES + CHANNEL CAR UPDATES / VW Swap Rabbit Caddy

[@ThePopcyclePete]

The DTM up-swept exhaust is a dead giveaway as to when this car was built....so 90s. Awesome find R. I'm excited to see how it all plays out. Keep up the great work buddy. I always look forward to Wednesdays to see what's happening in the Mystery Garage!

[@MysteryGarage]

Hahahah right?? Thanks man, I’m super stoked on it that’s for sure! Appreciate it as always!!!

[@fastbunnymetalwerks]

This cabriolet is super rad. Can't wait to see where this one goes. Too cool to pass up for sure.

[@MysteryGarage]

Right!?!? Thank you, so stoked on this! Thanks for watching, appreciate the support. Cheers

[@MysteryGarage]

Hahaha they do though… thanks for watching, really appreciate the support! More to follow! Cheers

Love this!! 🙌

Much appreciated! Thanks for watching and all the support! Cheers

[@usrnmeunknwn8691]

Somebody has to know the full history of that car. Keep making the content. I'll eventually be motivated enough to throw money at my own MK1 GTi again.

[@MysteryGarage]

YES DO IT!!! you won’t regret it hahaha! Thanks for watching, really appreciate the comments and support!! Cheers!!

[@toothferrin]

Back when a build actually meant more than a turbo and a tune That’s sweet

[@MysteryGarage]

Right!! I love this one! Such a cool build, so stoked on it! Lots more to come for sure!! Thanks for watching and the continued support! Cheers!!

[@johnathekid1040]

What a great addition to an already stellar collection! Cant wait to see what happens with it!

[@MysteryGarage]

Hahaha thank you, thank you! Much appreciated! Thanks for the support and cheers for the watch! More to come!!

[@adamtaylor3542]

I love all VW 1-7 and I’m a mk2 & mk3 kinda guy but I am really starting to love & enjoy mk1s even more

[@MysteryGarage]

Mk1’s are amazing! Truly my favoured, I think that ones quite obvious hahaha. Thanks for watching, really appreciate the support! Cheers

[@syncropassat]

I very much approve of your engine choice. I lusted over a lysholm 16v/g60 for my b3 syncro wagon. Extremely jealous.

[@MysteryGarage]

Right!?!? So cool! Looking forward to cleaning this setup up and playing around with it! Lots more to come and thank for watching!! Appreciate the support! Cheers

[@masonpugh3637]

Very beautiful has lot of potential ❤️ mods love em

[@ecarasig]

Oh...My...God...I can't believe you found this. From how you sound I probably don't want to know what you paid for this. This thing is LOADED! A Momentum Motorsports build?! They only did big dollar builds back in the day! I oogled over that bahnbrenner setup every Waterfest. For the money that person spent at that time they probably could have bought an R32! I think this is a great setup for stepchild what an improvement! You never mentioned what 16v this is (2.0, 1.8, tall deck)? This is awwwwesome!!! Soooo, standalone for stepchild AND the drag car?! LOL!

[@MysteryGarage]

Hahaha weeellllll… let’s just say I paid a little more than the original cost of the peliquin diff itself, for the entire car as you see it! Pretty stoked for sure! And it’s a 2.0 9A sorry I missed that! This thing is awesome and I have lots more in store before I pull it all out that’s for sure! Thanks for watching, the comments and your continued support, really appreciate it!!

[@ecarasig]

@@MysteryGarage 9A G60 is the killer period correct upgrade. I can't wait to see the content! Its a two way street sir! I stay watching because it keeps me excited about my project so THANK YOU and keep posting!

[@michaeljames9333]

Damnnnnn, thats a slick find.

[@MysteryGarage]

Thank you, thank you! I’m pretty stocked on it that’s for sure! Appreciate the watch and thanks so much for the support! Cheers

[@azharebrahaim9189]

I can’t wait such a awesome build this will be step step child 🧒👌😎

[@MysteryGarage]

Thank you thank you!! Lots more to come too!! Thanks for watching, appreciate the support! Cheers!!

[@PieterKuijk]

That is one awesome find! 16v G60 wow! Jeroen Dik became the most famous guy in the vw scene for doing his 16vg60 build in the 90's here in the Netherlands. It was in all the magazines. Check out his website, he knows a lot and he might be on vortex. Don't you want to know what this would do on the dyno? Maybe nice to see a before and after! 1.8 16vg60 vs 2.0 16vg60. That cabrio would still be a really neat car with a aba in it and with the interior sorted.

[@MysteryGarage]

Super stoked on this one for sure! I’ll have to look that on up, see if I remember it! Ya not to sure what I’ll end up doing with the “rest” of the car down the road, but too cool to scrap/part I think, so have to make a plan at some point! Thanks for watching! Appreciate the support as always!! Cheers!!

[@craigjones3102]

I think Shawn Vaneer had a hand on that engine. I am building an ABA 16V turbo for my mk1 jetta. Was thinking of using my old mk4 Eurodyne Maestro tuned ecu. Can’t wait to see the updates

[@MysteryGarage]

Love it! Yes he did, atleast a little because in the paperwork I have there is a little correspondence from him included. I would love to know how much he played though too! Thanks for watching, your build sounds awesome! Appreciate the support, cheers!!

[@rcflyer2000]

Awesome engine in the new Cabiolet! I am actually working on a S2 Scirocco that I plan to Supercharge at some point in the future. This Scirocco already has a 9A 16v in it from Mk2 GTI, I have added a bigger I take intake cam (stock 215 from a UK spec. Mk2 GTI) to the engine since purchasing the car last year.

[@MysteryGarage]

Love it!! Sounds like an awesome project!! Thanks for watching, I really appreciate the support! Cheers

[@erichall9438]

Thank you thank you, much appreciated! Thanks for the watch as well, cheers!!

[@George-zq2sk]

all that effort to put in a 16vG60... only to put in a 020 and digi1... very cool for sure, hope you use the parts, do something modern like a 02j with a diff and MegaSquirt then it will really shine

[@jonscot8393]

1st I need a 2 post lift, but no idea which 2nd hand one to get and what to watch out for.

[@MysteryGarage]

A lift??? Man I do everything with a jack and some jack stands!! Hahaha all goodies there! Thanks for the support and appreciate the watch! Cheers

[@hansbrekke4784]

When Digifant is given lager injectors it will be pig rich until 75 degreeC even if the chip is made for the new big injectors. This is due to the Digifant just add Xms to the injector open time. Have this on my B2 16vT with Digifant.

[@juanbadbreedracinggarcia6608]

I likey the cabriolet 🤤it’s deserving of a nice swap after you pull out the 16v👍🏻

[@MysteryGarage]

Ya to cool to just part out or scraps for sure but undecided where to take it at the moment, have to see how this one plays out! Thanks for watching, appreciate the support as always!! Cheers

[@rabbitgti652]

Oh that car has cams 100%

[@MysteryGarage]

No doubt it does, one of these days I need to find out which ones lol! Thanks for watching, appy the support as always!! Cheers

I know this episode is about the engine change but if you're still looking for someone to paint Stepchild .. there is an amazing VW bodyshop around Vernon BC . All enthusiasts who are passionate about what they do

[@MysteryGarage]

Awesome thank you!! Appreciate the support! Cheers

[@robertg5754]

Hi from South Africa. What happened to step child? The last episode i saw was that it went off to have paint done. I know you bought the Cabio with the 16v supercharger. I watched this epsidoe but i dont recall you saying anything about it. I was looking forward to see you actually putting the car back together and get it going. I have an 83 GT 2 door, that i rebuilt and i am currently redoing a lot of stuff on it. Your videos are great, i found your channel coz of the ABF clone video. I am doing something similar with the engine but im doing forced induction. I might actually do some videos on it but i know it is loads of work. Good luck and please let me know about step child.

[@rskalisky]

Not what I was expecting at all, very cool. Any plans to replace the apex/oil seals given it's sat for a while?

[@MysteryGarage]

Right!?!? Thank you! No punt I will cross that bridge at some point. Once we jump into it I’ll look at boost figures and see how we stack up! BBM has kits for just that! Thanks for watching, I appreciate the support!! Cheers
