Hi everyone, just to let you know I'm new on here, and this is my 1st classic car as well (tho Ive had enough regular cars thats another story) so I apologize in advance!
Anyway - after plenty of moaning from my mates about not havin a classic, Ive brought this Polo mk1 from ebay end of last month. Some of u may have seen it on there?
A Polo GLS with the 1093 engine, 38K, Brown with a tan interior, full years MOT. Sills an arches have been replaced recently, its pretty much rust free!
I was well pleased with it, but on the way home to Sheffield from Derby the clutch went!!! The seller didnt mention it an we hadnt taken it for a test drive, so we were kinda stuffed. Phoned rac and got towed home.
So now the 1st job is changing the clutch, which I'm going to do myself. Then fiddling with carb, as it doesnt idle right an cuts out when u put the choke in. Also the drivers door doesnt lock, hopefully it will just be the rod coming loose or something, but more likely will be the barrel.
Sorry the pics are rubbish, but these are only ones ive got a moment, its currently under a few inches of snow!! Will get some proper pics on soon as it thaws out.
