    Awesome build. My stepmother had a 1.1 that she bought new. Sadly she didn't want to sell it to me. Man it would have been the perfect project car. No rust no accidents, only white paint faded and maybe new piston rings. Currently have a VW Pickup, these cars are something special and they becoming very sought after the older they get. Great video enjoy the Golf and God bless 🙏

    Huge respect for this build. The amount of determination to see it through to such a high level is stunning. This is not really a special model of car-its not a '53 Beetle or even a MK1GTI, but a run of the mill Golf (Rabbit here in the USA), yet it was treated like one for this restoration-as it should be. I have long been an air cooled fan, and still have several including a couple of very nice Beetles. I am in the middle of a "minor" restoration of a 1982 Quantum Coupe-perhaps the rarest of any VW model ever sold in the USA, and I can tell you that it is far harder than any other car I have done, due to the absolute lack of trim parts available for these unloved cars.

    Congratulations! My first car was like this one and it was red with its original paint. Although it was about 14 years old, very basic, and in bad shape when I owned it, it was a car to remember forever. Many of the parts shown in your video had to be replaced in my car back then in the early 1990's! Great video and impressive job!!!!
