1978 Mk1 Polo Shell With Mot - Can Tax At Cost

Featured Replies

1978 Mk1 Polo

Untaxed / MOT till April 2009

Been Rattle Canned Black, Rusted Bonnet & Graffiti'd Robots on the Side.

Standard Brown Interior/Brown Doorcards

Original Early Wooden Dash & Clocks

No Engine

:- Brakes need bleeding, Front Calipers require 2 new bleed nipples as current ones have rounded off (will come with VWII calipers in VGC, unfitted)

Currently has no front end suspension or running gear, although i will supply or fit if i get round to it, the entire suspension and arb setup from my coupe s when i fit the hnr kit and subframe

The shell is tidy for its age, the wings have a few holes in as do the rear arches around the lip but again this is due to the age.

Will be suppplied with a late spec grille/headlights and bumpers.

Offers around 250.

another job :lol: i didnt have one in the first place, I'm looking for work now as a post-graduate, fingers crossed I should hear back from one I've been in cahoots with for the past week, tomorrow and they may offer me a position.

What did you spunk ten g's on :lol:

No worries mate, I'd rather keep the Lupolo to be honest as its my baby and I dont actually need a car for my new job as its in the city centre. Fingers crossed I get it and I dont have to sell either :-D Just want to get one on the road asap so I dont have to keep spunking money on trains for when I go and visit my friends.

I will be bringing the Graff'd Mk1 back upto manchester this weekend, curtorsy of the AA (although they dont know that yet mwahahaaha)

1965 Splitscreen. Getting it early next week.

lupolos no longer for sale but ill take 500 quid for a quick sale on the GT.

Saf you loon, thats one crazy mk1. I like the graffiti but Rach don't (women eh!) I'm looking for a daily but i aint got my money through yet :-(

Shall be in contact when it appears.

Oh, whats with all the odd words in that build thread? Mancunian dialect or drug abuse? lol

  • Author

hahahaha =P what words?! i am rather mental to be honest so probably a bit of both

and no worries I'm in no rush, i get paid from my new job on friday and I've got myself a daily runabout so i dont mind these sitting in the unit for as long as needs to till i can be bothered to finish them, getting the gt running and taxed is my main priority at the minute as I'm still paying insurance on it

if she dont like the graff just give her a couple of rattle cans and itll be gone before you know it

Is the lupolo sold or just no longer for sale??

Edited by coz_g40

I love the artwork. Hats off to Charlie for her skills. I'm jealous. Don't care if rach don't like the graffiti, it's me who'll be driving it. She can hide in the back! Lol

:lol: cheers dude. :)

Would you swap for a 1.4 6n polo mostly standered but on steelies and 6x9s and cd :)

  • Author

possibly, however you mention that yours has been in an accident and requires jigging, so I'm afraid I'm going to stay away on that one, sorry

  • 3 weeks later...

you still got this?

  • Author

yes but the engine is now pretty much sold.

  • Author

Engine definatly sold, being removed tomorrow.

No front end running gear now but will be supplied, or have fitted, the entire running gear from my coupe s (including front brakes, struts, arb, steering rack mount, tie rod arms, track rod arms, front and rear suspension)

Car will be supplied with 4 14 inch passat steelies with road legal tyres

250 with running gear from coupe s

200 take it as is.

Thanks

Saf

Very Very tempted mate .... My 16v has just been written off but hopefully buying her back....

Would be feeling this to drop the 16v into. So is all the sus there? its all running apart from an engine and gearbox?

O ad is it standard sus from the coupe s?

Just have to work out how to get it from manchester to london though :(

16v afh would be a sweet engine to stick in there.

Yes pretty much everything is there, Full standard suspension from a coupe S as well as the Coupe s's brakes. Its not been fitted yet and currently theres no front suspension on the mk1 whatsoever. I will get round to putting the front end suspsenion back on when ever my subframe/hnr kit arrive and i can strip the parts of the coupe s.

I have a friend who could possibliy trailer it at cost, failing that i know the number of a few transportation firms

cheers

saf

Hmmm i really would love to drop the 16v lump in maybe some bike carbs .....

Just gotta think about money. I have whatever the insurance is going to give me for the car minus me buying it back lol and i need to sort out a daily. Really want to do this now as it shouldn't be to much hassle getting the 16v in and then theres plently to play with.

How much do you think transporting it will be then?

  • Author

Probably around 100-150. Its worth asking a few friends as they might know someone who knows someone
