s4cr's daily driver. Jetta mk1.

[s4cr]

Thought i need a build thread so i could post all my progress. Here we go
first half can be found here: http://www.stanceworks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7662

Things i've done so far:

Cleaned up the interior, exterior and polished the old paint. It turned out better than i expected.

Turtle wax powaaaaa


and then we went out for a little photoshoot




















Cleaned/washed the trunk/engine bay



Polished the handbrake.






And fixed a lot of other little things - pushed the radio into the dashboard (it was sticking out like and inch. lol), put some rubbers in place, checked all the wires, cleaned up the connections and so on.

I'm still searching for the wheels..

Shiny shiny:}} polished valve cover and the hood lock. Next is alternator and some other stuff. Then i'm gonna try to hide all this messy wiring as much as possible. (not going for a show car type of "clean" bay. Just little less mess)

Yeah, definitely a nice buy.

It's a daily. I picked it up cause e36 was starting to get on my nerves, so i decided to strip it apart and rebuild pretty much everything, then paint it. Ofcourse i still need something to drive, so this is it

Like i said. color is awesome. im stoked to see it slammed

Thanks man

nah, cooling is ok..lots of little things though. Daily driving a stanced/slammed car is a bitch, especialy over here and didn't have the time to take care of everything properly, cause it was my only car and i needed it everyday.

i'm going to build custom coilovers probably. Using stock shocks and ebay parts.
