i'm Leif, 34 years old,
i come from kiel and i show my golf1 I bought the first one in 2015 as the body
it has is original from 1983 with 50 hp but then on 16v which I
threw out again and the 1.8 turbo I have built in the now so "181"
hp and yes I am very satisfied with it but now with BBS E50
already had various wheel sets as he stands there now that you are almost my dream I've always grown up on the VW track and it was clear to me at some point there will be another golf 1 and i
had driven in the golf r32 for years and then it came child and then I sold it you have
to have something to build on it I bought a Golf 1 that I've
always wanted and I knowingly too it already gets a 1.8 turbo and so it
already has that in mind, yes, i have the golf 2015 bought and it was a coincidence that the stand around the
corner in classifieds was relative expensive but had a few things that were definitely
decisive in buying how For example the small taillights, the bronze glazing
and yes the condition was not good but you get it yes, no more golf 1 in top condition for
normal money so the first thing I do I had to completely dismantle it
, except for the bare body and then I have to wait three or four years until the
painter had time and then the first thing to do was paint made so that the paint was ready, I
slowly started to build up but also a lot Doing things two or three times because you were
not satisfied with it and then again bigger because somehow the thought
always came up that I want a little more drive power and that's why I always
built big so that it lasts as well yes I had taken the 1.8 turbo out of a tt
and rebuilt it so that it fits into the Golf 1 but it is yes a big effort and that was
almost the first thing in there in the car was not cable in there no seats nothing but the engine
was already sitting and then I gradually The whole body was built together so that
I could start and drive for the first time and yes it also convinced me that I
definitely wanted to continue driving like this and then I first drove with standard equipment then
I converted to bucket seats again and then he has the brake, it wasn't that
way or it was still too small then that doesn't fit then it has to be bigger then i converted the rear
to a bigger brake system from the r32 then various wheel sets from OZ super
turismo to Eta Beta Turbo, bbs le mans and now E50 and for me that is the best
rim for the car and it fits perfectly we stay on it first I had the
problem that the bodies know that I am here sometimes even warped it all worked out
when you gave it full throttle and there I did I said I can no longer drive without a cage
, although I had everything in the front and back of the strut bar inside but it wasn't enough so I
bought a roll cage from Wiechers completely with it all strive and everything that
goes with it since then that also very tight the car really drives It is also sensible to let go of the steering wheel
at full throttle – it always drives straight ahead the really nice and the recaro pole position
which of course had to be part of the overall look of the of these gti practically fit and then
the middle parts were in the original 76er diamond pattern saddled up and yes that's how it fits, this is that it is
just right everything fits together perfectly so driving the car is an
adventure because the performance is quite brutal for this size of the car and when you drive it
on the street street is fine you can't compare that is simply nice that everything starts to vibrate it becomes Incredibly loud you can no longer
talk in the car because the body is just like that A tin can is and yes, the background noise makes you think you are sitting directly on the engine, you only hears the turbocharger being sucked in, you can hear popping
out of the exhaust and that conjures up every time laugh in the face and you just can't
describe it you have to feel it so when I do now the car says yes it is true that that also believes
me here, but you can only really feel it if you drive it like that, you really have to
experience the H&R Deep the first stage, so to speak, this rebound 30 because
I can't drive that deep in the car, so that's what now it really works to the maximum because the
oil sump rubs against the ground and yes the tires are the 190 185s so there wasn't that
much space and yes it was really very good so it's not too hard and not too soft,
nothing grinds and still number one for me the red golf 1 fell into our hands back then
i had already started the white and then Suddenly this car came dusty like
you do in some films or something
let's see, such a barn find in the workshop and yes I could then buy cheap from an old lady with
whom no longer wanted or could not drive and only then saw that he had only run
2800 kilometers and yes so far You never get a car again and I only
rebuilt it very lightly.
50 hp original, really everything The series left except the chassis and a set of new wheels, which usually has OZ Turbos they are being processed at the moment and now just
to look at each other, I also have the Le Mans on it and this is a car
to fall in love with and for a Sunday sandwich fetch and so that's just the thing,
I still have a beetle that's a 1302 that's why was pretty cheap when I bought it
and decided to do it all once to renovate everything once to do everything with paint
Karossee a little bit of welding and well remodeling 67 optics and so a lot of work but I have
n't started yet because I haven't yet I really have the verve to do so but will
definitely start this year and yes the engine is a 1600 with double weber carburetors alone the sound is
already turning the key every time who does that is awesome is that when you drive with it you
think you really have it in the carburetor that's just sucking and that's really awesome
so everyone in the garage needs a car like that yes i thank my family in any case
for not letting me do this hobby supports me lets you take
it is not your favorite here that me I'm doing that but everything's fine I'm supposed to
live my hobby and I'll do it too, and I thank you again my buddy Marv who painted the car
that is still perfect since five years without anything happened and yes otherwise I don't need a thank you, I did the rest myself I hope you
