Here are the pics of my 1984 rabbit. It is under major construction. I just got in my new convertable top, and I am waiting on a rebuilt tranny... Tell me what you think and give me ideas..

i think you need a set or ronal ls wheels, lose the bodykit, replace all the bushings everywhere.....ball joints suspension bushings steering rack bushings.....theyre 20 years old if theyre origional probably worn and cracked

That bad huh??? I was hoping to get some constructive critisism... And as far as I understand, those are a set of ronal wheels... It was givin to me by my uncle as it sits... So I'm gunna have some fun times on my hands getting it nice again...

I would keep the body kit if in good shape and not broken otherwise loose it. Good that you got the new top right away considering our weather. You know i would get rid of the wheels ond go with a nice set of BBS or something similar i have seen 17's or 18's on them but if not thinking that big you can find great (inexpensive) wheel and tire combo's on 15's and 16's with sticky rubber that will transform this mark II platform add " BRAND NAME"urethane bushings update the struts if wanted add a set of lowering springs and then you'll be begging for alot more motor than that 1.8 can provide. Been there done that ex- 84 Scirocco owner

yea, the kit is perfect. It is a BBS front air damn and zender side skirts. I need a rear kit though... Looks kinda plain.

Ya,thats going to be a fun project, I can't wait till I can pick-up another old rabbit or scirocco to fix-up. :) Anyway, enjoy the build.

i just put the rebuilt tranny in today, and it runs good now. Now it's on to the little things, fuel pump, filter, and a bunch of other little things...
