Nice car. I've always loved Mk 1 Jettas. My first new Jetta was a 1984 GL diesel with leather (naugaleather ;))

i am always most proud when i fix all the previous owners hacks. a lot of the time it looks like they spent more time on the hack than it would have taken to fix it the right way

i have a bad habit of rescuing mk1's from idiots. this is the last one i picked up for 280 bucks. had some hacks. fixed it up real quick for nine bucks, and tripled up in just over a week. best part, the new owner had a perfectly running 78 rabbit that needed nothing. For less than a grand ;D
