Amazing amazing car! The mk1 and mk2 Golf are definitely my favorite cars in the world 😮‍💨

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

Thank you! Same here!

[@JunkVWs]

Love the patina. Is your climate dry?

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

Thanks! And no, not usually.. Metal doesn't last very long around here

[@carbonmk1]

sweet ride

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

Thanks!

[@FrancoisProjects]

Linseed oil for your body. It will protect your patina. Haha

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

I've used it in the past! I'm just not a fan of how pollen sticks to it lol

[@Mk1justin]

Absoutly love the patina on this!!! Did you clear over it or just polished ? Love to see a fellow garden state rabbit 👍🏽

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

Thanks me too! Its was a lot of polish and buffing pads lol

[@Mk1justin]

Awsome can’t wait to see what paint comes back on mine !! When I get mine back on the road we will have to cruise !! 👍🏽

[@user-hc9lp3hb1r]

Why on earth lower the car onto wood blocks before lowering completely to the floor? Also, storing the car on trolleys seems like a lot of extra work for what benefit? Ease of moving the car around the shop (at the expense of a flat spot on the tire)?

[@anelkadiric9604]

He won’t be able to get his jack out without the blocks I’m guessing lol

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

Its too low to pull the jack out from under the car when its on the ground, and I use the dollies just to maximize space in my garage, it truly doesn't sit long enough to get flat spots. The alignment on it is such a wreck anyway the tires get destroyed regardless lol

[@skythetimelord]

What kind of intake manifold is that its super clean and what im lookin for

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

Its a turbo diesel manifold with a pipe that I made with a beetle 34pic3 air filter on it

[@skythetimelord]

Okay cool I appreciate you getting back to me I was looking around is it by chance the Pd150??

[@scratch.and.dent.garage]

@@skythetimelord I thinkkkk it is. It was in a pile of parts I bought so I'm not 100% positive. Definitely looks like it though

[@skythetimelord]

Gotcha I get how that is but thanks man I appreciate it been looking for one for a while to see if it would fit. Seen yours and that answers my question
