Mods Engine: Optima Red Top Battery , MK4 Plug wires

Mods Suspension: Nothing, riding high SUV-style

Mods Interior: Removed all airbags (yikes!), CitiGolf Steering wheel, MK3.5 Cabrio 2-tone dash panels, Upper euro glove box (in place of pass. Airbag), MOMO shift knob (yes, I know, its an automatic, don't flame me too bad!), various chrome bits and pieces, MK3.5 Cabrio dash switches (red/blue lighting instead of green/orange), Kenwood EZ-500 head unit, XM Radio,

clean and love the engine. but what steering wheel is that?

_________________

Its from the Citi Golf. Its only sold in South Africa, and it is a reproduction of the original Rabbit. Believe it or not, its a currently produced and sold car. That steering wheel is my favorite part of my car. As far as I know, on the vortex anyway, nobody at all has it in their MK3. Here is the car it came from.

It's kinda funny how you have a mk3 vr6 with mk4 plug wires Smilie_PDT

I got the mk4 vr6 with mk3 plug wires PDT_Aliboronz_20

Lucky for you it'll be easy to grab a mk4 wheel and toss it on there PDT_Aliboronz_15

You need to buy brandon's mk4 GLX wheels from him and pimp those PDT_Aliboronz_09

I live on the very north side of town, close to centerville and byron. My brother works at the Oreilly auto parts store on Watson, so the Golf is always parked outside during the day, and at Sears at the Galleria, so its always there at night. And I work at Pier 1 Imports, so my car is always sitting outside there. I ride around so much (theres not much else to do here), I'm surprised you haven't seen me yet.. I gotta take a look at your car. When I looked at the group pics from the mall, I saw a bunch of cars that I recognized from around town. One of the waiters at El Bronco drives a clean silver Mk4 GTI, has Monte wheels.. I don't drive too far going to work, so thats the only other vw i really see on a daily basis

oh yes. i remebmer seeing the red gti at orilleys like everytime i pass it, but dont goto the mall alot. i was at el diablo(bronco) the other day and the car was there, it looked just like mine with the santa monicas

Ok, I've been meaning to get back in touch here forever. Here are some updated pics of my VR. If anyone knows where I can get a CHEAP running MK2 or Caddy, lemme know! I want a fun beater car to tinker with.

Any new events going on soon?

Thanks
Doug
