My new daily/project. I got the front down pretty low via coilovers, now it's just waiting for an axle flip to get the rear down.

It was in the next town over from me at a body shop. Couldn't have picked a better truck if I tried. Relatively low mileage, rust free body, 5 speed, and air. _________________ I run two fuel filters in my engine bay. |

I just finshed buffing it out in that picture.
When I got it I couldn't tell what color it was, inside or out. It was completely covered in dirt and tree sap. Story on it is that it was originally from arizona (and it shows, no rust anywhere besides where a pile of leaves sat in the bed) then the guy moved to upstate NY and parked it in the woods and there it sat for 20 years. I got it, put glow plugs and a battery in it and it started right up! I've put 2k on it since. I do a lot of driving and bought it for the mileage and so I have a parts runner but it's more fun than I could have imagined. New windshield seal, small stereo system, coilovers, wheels and tires, tucked the bumper, and some other minor stuff and I only have a little more than two grand into it |
Bro, that's clean as hell. I've always wanted an A1 GTI that didn't need alot of work, just never found one that wasn't big $$$$$$. |
So true! Everyone that i've seen needs a lot of work or no work but has a hefty price tag....you got a heck of a deal man! |

I like those wheels, what size are they? Are they 4x130mm? |
Actually it's Toyota's. As far as i remember it's 4x100 or really close but the offset was crap. Running custom spacers to get brake clearance in front and no rubbing in the back. |
Is that a Dasher GT? _________________ MyBuild http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=571921
