Posted: 08 Nov 2011, 23:18
hello all, my name is john, i live in france and this is my winter beater, 1987 2.5 GTD 505
i've only just got it, so will soon be soon enough asking questions abit upp'ing the power as i know these are pretty unbustable engines, i plan on keeping the interior and exterior as it left the factory but maybe a slight lowering and some nice wheels, 505's are now expensive here so important to keep its originality, the engine.... are there any gains to be had...
my name ahh yes before anyone says owt... its the name i use all over as i am a VW man having owed over 100 over the last 15 years
the 505 will become my daily driver to take abit of the weight of my Polo
1986 Polo 2 1.6 Breadvan, slightly modified i also own 2 passats, another Polo 2 and a 1983 LT Truck
so hello all, look forward to seeing some of your rides, i got some cracking old french pics i'll put up as i learn my way about..
