Oh yeah, I guess that is a Rabbit MK1. Didn’t look that close. _________________ Vanagon ’83 diesel AAZ w/Giles injection, 5spd 4.57R&P+TBD and a '78 diesel Rabbit |

More owner customized creations from Europe
Grill replaced with a more restrictive panel just to be different and a diamond plate covered bumper. (??)
Inside is an oversized custom dash.
OSB wall and door with a extra fancy handle.

well the diamond plate bumper isn't all that bad. As you say though too restrictive on the air flow to the radiator.
The instrument panel is a splinter hazard when he crashes from overheating the engine.

Weird grill delete with cut outs (huh?)
Orange and brown with a widow's peak. Must be a hit in Cleveland.
Pro seam rust repair. You have to look close to see it.
NOT a shame, but a super weird camera angle. Fisheye?

No grill delete, just an air cooled with shark gills added.
