1982 vw rabbit
 

Picked this cream puff up this past week. She's a little rough around the edges, but she's just about 30 years old so what can you expect. I got some nice plans for it so hopefully it all works out, its a nice platform to start, not much rust at all and a great color :P

Yup whatever that is called swagrabbit or whatever is straight stupid.

yea well i like saving old cars, not ruining them so don't stress :D

My mom had that exact car when I was a little kid.

The suspension on this car is wicked ! it just hugs the corners lol...

watching you leave the meet last night we had a good laugh lol

That they do. My buddy had one lowered with a VR-T and the thing was straight monster. Seriously amazing little sleeper, I have seen that car destroy tons of cars on the high way

I'm not a vw fan but these are sweet my buddy just finished his build with a sirocco motor swap

i was just poking a little fun at how much roll it has right now lol, but hey i bet this thing would handle like a go kart with the right coil set up

This could be really nice

K swap!

Haha I figured I'd do something to put a smile on everyone's face

Just over 2000lbs they're a great car to throw a 200-250whp motor in and surprise a few people

Haha yup stock suspension is nothing special. Poly bushings everywhere, coils, and a rear sway bar they a pretty much exactly like a go kart :)

I wish :( I always think of buying a beat one and doing a b series or sonething but it's probably more work than its worth

coilovers and euro bumpers should be on early next week. yeaaa buddy

what kind of coils did you get ?

racelands duhhhh haha

My buddy is restoring a 79 2door for his homie.

Full chassis restoration. Media blast and all. Just on hold now though as he just deployed to s.Korea.

Good luck w the build. I'll check back to see what's new.

thanks for sharing, id like to do a build like that one day i just don't have the time or money right now :(

Picked up the euro bumpers yesterday and also got a set of 15" 3 piece epsilon southern ways wheels. They're porsche fitment and i don't even know the exact specs so it was kind of a shot in the dark buying them but we'll see how it goes. I'm going to refinish them real quick and then do some test fitting so i can order adapters :)

ok so heres a picture of the wheels i got. 15x7 5x130 epsilon southern ways. no bends or curb rash that can't be easily sanded out. $225 :)

Any ideas for center color? I'm between orange, white, cream, or brown.

And heres a picture of the car with the coil overs and euro bumpers installed, the bumpers definitely make the car look 10000x better imo
