GOLF MK1 TRANSFORMATION

- It has been a long time since my 1982 Golf Mk1 has been featured on the channel. After the engine swap series I ran into some trouble which resulted in the car sitting behind locked doors for a while. But today we're going to change that

There is almost nothing better than eating dinner and watching Memphis‘ videos💪🏻
I definitely agree with that
Florian L. Can’t more agree with you, truly good guy!
I'd prefer to see a video on restoring the wheels in a “cheap“ way with rattle cans, since I don't own a spray gun, air compressor or any of the equipment. I would love to see tips and tricks on restoring wheels in that way, since I'd like to tackle such job myself one day. :) Whichever method you'll choose, I'll watch the video. :)
Evaldai, pilnas youtube, kaip galima dažyti su skardinėmis ratus ;)
@@ifixed_ please talk english
Tons of videos on how to do that on youtube. Using all that equipment makes for better results, so if he can use them, he should :D
Chrisfix posted a video on painting rims
finally more golf, its a beauty
6:43 ah classic belgian roads.
Damn the look on your face was like ow sh*t something is about to break.
Hey Memphis, tuning in from Australia. Hard to find MK1 Golfs here so its good see one be modified on TH-cam. Cheers man keep up the good videos. :)
For some reason when I watch your videos I get an 80s vibe, free time travel.
Thank you for actually putting effort in the quality of your videos!
Glad to hear that the struts actually works, so now i will do this on my Golf Cabrio -89 who flex like an Brasilian carneval 🤘🏽 Thanks! Greatings from Sthlm Sweden.
Enjoy these always, keep up the good work!
Love this sir. Keep it up. Great job with the info, video and install.👍🏾@memphis
My first car I bought directly after getting my license is a 1985 VW Passat B2 Hatchback. Glad to hear you have owned yours for 8years. Looking forward to own mine for another 7 years. March marks 1 year.
Finally! Bro respect from Serbia❤
3:50 yes do that
poz dejo kralju

@Cristian Enea thanks bro❤
znaci ima nas :D

Nice work, greetings from Germany🇩🇪
Great video, Memphis. Nice to see the strut tower braces make a difference. I was already thinking of that for the old Volvo. Seeing this, that will be happening along with other chassis upgrades once the body is restored to as new. 617,000 kilometers and 32 Ontario, Canada winters have taken a toll. Still, nice to see videos like this that inspire.
Great Video, I love the way your Golf looks now. And the mic in the engine bay was a superb idea! I think with the current look, some auxilary Lamps on the front would really set your MK1 off. Cheers from Luxembourg:)
Well done mate, i love your work
Regards from Brazil man! Nice work with the mk1!
Good video - I learned something today. My Mk1 Jetta made the exact same engine noise as yours. Now I know it's an overly-tight timing belt. I'll be sure to adjust it next time I take it out. Thanks Memphis!
By the way - I cannot believe how draconian the laws are in Belgium when it comes to car customization. Regardless, the car looks great with what you have to work with. Really like the new wheels - very BBS looking.
good job boi ❤️ greetings from Slovenia 🇸🇮
Any method you’ll choose will be good! Nice work. Greetings from Croatia. 🇭🇷
Amazing car , greetings from Florida 🤘🏽
Another great video fair play keep up the good work!
Beautiful job on your mk1, loved the video. Such a shame that Belgium has such strict regulations for adaptations on cars/oldtimers...
it is the same in Denmark :(
it's even worse in Serbia
Same in romania
Funnily enough, also in Italy.
I think that the only way that you can legally change tire size here is to get the measures approved by the manufacturer, fit the wheels, test them with a dmv supervisor and get that written into the registration book.
Awesome video mate! had the same noise with my mk2 after changing water pump and CAM BELT :)
Nice mods, dude! Like your videos about that oldschool Golf, kinda reminds me about good days, when i was driving mk2 Jetta.
Love old cars, it is good to see them in a nice shape after all the years on a road.
Oh, by the way, greetings from Ukraine!)
That's so cool and learning, now i started my dream came true like you.
Ur videos are my favourite thing to watch on the internet. I wanna see more of that mk1 Jetta tho! P.s: I think cheap restoration would me more interesting but if it will leave a noticeable difference in finish then maybe the pro way is the way to go 🤷♂️
Très belle golf mk1
Félicitations 👍👍👍👍
Good stuff man! Shame about the old wheels but loving the current ones and that lip too!
Awesome mk1. I highly recommend getting the lower "k" style chassis brace for any mk1 (if you don't have one yet). It makes the biggest difference IMO. Even more than the top brace.
Do a properly restoration please!!! Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷👋 Amazing videos!!
Well done brother! Greetings from Belarus!)
I am so happy I found your channel
How about finding my channel? 😅
hey Memphis, love watching your videos. With regards to the wheels, please don't do it cheaply for our sake, YOU have the tools and skills available to make your car the best it can be for you, so I vote a proper sprayjob/restoration for the wheels with the spray gun and compressor. Do it right, do it once.
Trying to remove spraypaint off a wheel later on will be a pain in the ass, I've had to do it a few times, and honestly just wished the previous owners left them in whatever state they were,
best of luck, and keep up the good work.
Yay, a mk1 episode 👍
Nice work, greetings from Portugal
Beautiful!
those mesh wheels would look awesome with plastic nut covers and centers from the OEM 85' steelies, keep it up man.
Super video! En de gti lip mooi zo laten 👍🏻
GORGEOUS!
Cheap way or spray gun way, they should look mint!
il n'y a pas à dire, mais la golf 1 et 2 restent et resterons les plus belles de toutes
Again a nice video ! Keep it up!!
those wide steelies actually look really good im surprised
You should look into a four point lower strut brace. Should do wonders for handling and rigidity
Love your page. I am building a Golf MK1 Cabriolet. Can you please tell me where you bought the thin molding that replaced the OEM on the doors and fenders? Thanks in advance
Like the mark I, if you are going to take it on the track you might consider fitting a larger radiator, if memory serves the GTI radiator will offer the required cooling. If that is still not sufficient then you can add an oil cooler. I like the channel, keep it up.
Hey mate, I came accross your channel and so far I am loving it. Despite English is not your first language, and either is mine, I can fully understand you and your content is definitely genuine and hilarious, TH-cam needs more car enthusiast like you.
I may have the possibility to live in Germany, I am aware you are in Belgium, but I was curious to ask how much should I expect to pay for a Mk1 or Mk2 Golf with TUV and registration, considering that it drives but there may be some mechanical things to fix. I have looked on Mobile.de, Autoscout24 and Marketplace but I am a little bit lost in pricings.
Now I am currently living in New Zealand, but Germany has always been a dream for me, and what better car to enjoy throughout Europe doing road trips than a Golf, I used to have a Mk3 1.8 GL that I still miss.
Thanks in advance and sorry for asking so much. Keep up the content and stay true to yourself!
Cheers!
Agustín Elorriaga i think 2-3000 should be possible
Nice rims Stino! Huzze-95 approves!
Drums to disk brakes conversion for the breaking power?
Knap werk ! Ik denk met heimwee terug aan mijn golf GTI (1.6 1981). Mijn velgen-banden (195 breed) combinatie waren ook 1 à 1,5 cm te breed en raakten bij doorveren de carosserie, en dan Bilstein schokdempers laten plaatsen. De wegligging was dan fenomenaal!
dikke video man! En dat geluid van de mic onder de kap is echt zalig :p
Hoi Memphis, ik heb eigenlijk geen voorkeur betreffende het bewerken van de velgen.
Wat ik wel zou doen is alle velgen op dezelfde manier behandelen. Zie in ieder geval weer uit naar het vervolg!! Succes!
Dude, those rims might be a bit rough, but they are f**king awesome!
That is one beautiful car
I'm watching this for inspiration on my new Cabriolet
Hand spray would make for a better finish. But it's all about the prep work.. Enjoying your videos young man...👍😀
Love the look of the car both before and after. Got to say though, is anything going to happen with that smushed sill at the front on the passenger side where you jacked the car up?
Tyler Freeman ive bought it like that. Im going to fix it soon.
Oh yeah I do love these videos
Nice video!! Zelf heb ik een mk2, tijdelijk is de motor even stuk, en heb ik niet veel tijd om hem te repareren met mijn studies enz...
Trouwens, ben ook erg benieuwd wat je gaat doen om er iets wat meer power uit te krijgen, mijn 1.3 maakt 55 ponytjes, maar zou er toch ook wat meer uit willen krijgen
I can not wait to see another episode of your BMW restoration.
Anyone else cry when they seen him pull the drill out and use it on that beautiful car?
Beautiful :)
i love this video, wil al van kind af een volkswagen golfje en wordt volgend jaar 17 toch hoop ik om een zoals die van jou te kunnen hebben (ik , leuk kleur, wielen zijn cool, overal vind hem echt perfect) !!!
if u can find wheel caps with bbs logo it looks great. nice cars nice channel (Y)
Great video as always Memphis! , BWA = Benzoni Wheels Accessories (Milano, Italy), you can check ebay.it for some center caps.As the wheels do have some curb rash you can easily remove it with a file if you can jack up the front of your car you can make this very neatly like it was mounted in a lathe.Good luck!!!
You can use the center caps of an Ronal LS's rims. Are close the same and fits perfect
Vicent Fabra thx for the tip
Happy to see you
You said you needed an alignment after you added the wheels. I'm thinking about adding a strut bar and wondering if it will still need an alignment. Being a convertible there really isn't much to do for stability
What a beautiful Mk1 Golf. Fantastic condition: I wouldn't want to be drilling into the bodywork to fit the rear strut brace & risk encouraging rust.
The real painting is with the spray gun ;)
Yes to that, I would prefer full restoration with spray gun. Like videos n keep up the good job. Much love from Kenya.
Hello mate, nice to see you back. One more advice, you cab fit bigger radiator for engine cooling from mk1 or mk2. You changed engine but radiator is still shitty one from 1.5 engine.
Finally ❗️
Nice ride
maybe do both methods of wheel restoration one side of the car with rattle cans the other spray gun. so where able to compare the difference...
Matt Buckland yeah and see the result after a year or so.
Super nice gedaan man! Waar heb je deze wagen gevonden? Ben zelf ook opzoek naar één dus ik vraag het maar even.
Maurice 2dehands
Great video one more time! In Spain happen’s the same with the modifications, it’s a big shit!
Sorry but i prefair the wide steelies wheels. Congratulations!
Toffe video 💪🏽💪🏽
Hey, im looking to buy a 1991 cabriolet with 130k miles here in fl .
I was wondering how reliable this car is? Im looking at an auto transmission one.
Litterally sat down here and wondered when ur going to post a new video
Wow your laws are really stupidly strict over there!! 🙈 I can understand the concerns of inexperienced and or unqualified people carry out some of the mods not allowed, but a lot of them add more safety to the vehicle. Awesome content young man. Keep it up!!👍🏻
Have you thought about fitting individual throttle bodies?The sound would be wonderful with them.
SmileyFace :D offcourse but i dont have the money yet :)
Great work Memphis altho I'm sorry that you live in a Police State 🙁 Those new wheels are superb - are they from a VW Corrado do you know? You might find the centre caps at the Essen show with a bit of luck. Keep up the good work!
With the centre caps look into either a 3d print or enlist a machine shop to turn some custom metal ones, maybe even with your Memphis logo on them
Nice Golf
Quick question, cant u just register ur car in netherlands, or other country, and drive it in any state u want in Belgium?
good job bro
5:33 is this a Golf or a Fiero now?
Is that a Ronald Finger reference?
Great video
Very nice my dad has one but the GTI version
Vanwaar zijde gij just? Ik zag daarjuist da ge van Baal naar Werchter reed in uwe video. :-P Toffe video's!
Salut Memphis! es ce que tu vas vendre tes anciennes toles élargies ?
BWA are a subsidiary company to BBS, so they are a good buy at €150 👍🏻👏🏻
Loved it
Oh I thought Belgium wasn't that strict but that sounds awful. I've got a 16v ABF swapped mk2 with bigger brakes, coilovers, poly bushings etc. Proper wheels coming soon and it's fully street legal in Finland. Lowering can also be done to 80mm ground clearance legally. Some cars are even less than 11cm stock.....
Cheddar555 Im from Germany and i thought our laws were strict but Belgium seems to be on a whole different level
@@burgholte Yeah exactly. Sounds a bit overkill to me.
Noice greetings from Brazil
What material is your garage floor. Is it some metallic epoxy? ouuu That would ne nice...
TelaKalle oy it is polished concrete
Try a lower front bar if you don’t have one to box in the front suspension. That should make a bigger improvement to the handling!
Zalige video en wat is het toch een prachtige wagen.
What kind of coil overs do you have?
Have you thought about getting like some Recaros for the front seats? or is that also illegal?
Im saving up for a set
