VW Golf Mk1 Gti #on deep dish steelies#

Never saw so many threads about Vw kits so I had to start one too
I received today my Aoshima wheels from the 'Custom wheels and Kaļ parts' kit and could not resist to put them under Fujimi's Golf1 Gti.

So, I start to work on ...

As it will be white as the 911R (see other WIP thread), I'll paint both bodies at the same time.

Re: VW Golf Mk1 Gti #on deep dish steelies#

Thanks guys
This is what I +/- try to replicate Except for the color.


Nothing beats widened steelies on an old watercooled Vw

So, you've got good neighbours and I know now where you find your inspiration

Re: VW Golf Mk1 Gti #on deep dish steelies#

!! Flash doesn't do justice to pictures, when we'll have some sun I'll take outdoor shots !!

Dashboard's ready.



Chassis modified to fit the widened steelies but also a new exhaust.




Floor realised with synthetic velvet


In progress: body + seats (like this!)

I know but it's the typical pattern for pre-1980 interiors .
There are some inconsistencies in the kit (post-80 dashboard with pre-80 steering-wheel. The other steering-wheel given with the kit is for the LX version.) so I had to choose between both interiors, pre-1980 and post-1980.
I don't like the post-80 version VVV
