Hi guys,

Currently busy re-doing a my girlfriends '94 MKI Golf in all sences of the word.

I've Decided to go with the 2006 Golf Velocity's Black Hood lining, 2003 Velocity Dash, 2006 indicator / wiper Stalks, 2003 Velocity Cluster, Velocity carpet and so on.

Let me know what you think :)

Once again, sorry about the size of the photies :(

Some vw producing countries adopted the "if it aint broke, dont' fix it" ideology. The mark 1, for instance. Just needed a little refining here and there.

Anyway... very cool.

Mean to say they don't manufacture MK1 Golfs in Utah anymore? :)

They're still manufacturing them here in a big way, its one of the most popular hatches on the market. South African Government also uses a lot of MK1's.

2006 Model had a basic facelift, new tail lights, new bumper and new interior, but the rest of the parts will still fit on a 1974 golf. :p

As for as their window winders, they have used the old MKIII winders. Once again, you cant improve on perfection :)
