A Rabbit is not to be wasted on the tentative or weak. Only the worthy are invited, and then only at your own risk. If you have even a modicum of hesitation, DO NOT buy one of these cars. Instead, leave it for a worthy soul who has already matriculated to the sublime ecstasy of what those in the know refer to as a "MK1"

made some progress
i just bolted the thing together, pulled it off the stand, took pics, and hung it back up in the garage. nothing is adjusted and the axle nuts arent even tight. i was just so stoked that i could throw it back together and have it look like a bike. i never ride in the drops, so ill be getting some pursuit bars sometime soon, but for now its double levers (one functional) and drops.

low seats = easier curb hops
my new project should arrive friday... got a thomson stem, truVativ bars and a selle italia turbo saddle on the horizon... maybe a selle san marco concor sprint saddle...
"I used to have a Mk2 GTI. First it was 6-speed 2.0 16V then I went VR6 Turbo... It had full Mk3 AC, popout rear windows, Audi handles, Mk3 dash, Recaro A8 seats, Corrado leather rear seats, Rallye HID front end, 16x8/9 w/ stretched tires, H&R ultralow coilovers, DE brakes... oh... headliner? Um... Nah..."

I MAY run a front brake for a while but I wish it didnt have cable stops... at least its not drilled for a rear brake LOL. I should have it in Friday.
