Meet/Greet in the conservation area for a while and then later in the day we have a cruise through the Forks stopping at key points to have a photoshoot, etc...

If you'd like a t-shirt or sticker/decal please email me at ronandrewweeks@gmail.com and tell me your shirt size and how many stickers/logos you'd like. I'll keep an excel file going so if it goes through you'll find out how much for the t-shirt or stickers for final order

So who's in??? Post up if you're in for the meet. As you post i'll continue to update this original post with the attendance list.

The meet will be open to all VAG makes and models, but please keep the parking portion of MK1's open for MK1's only and the others park close by so that we can get a large MK1 photoshoot at the lot

[followthereaper89]

I am so down for this

[Crazy Hungarian]

I don't have a running mk1

[ddg60]

ill be there

[euro_1.8t_gti]

I shall be there Also, lets pick a day in late june i say.. or early part of July.. make a cruise and hit a nice spot. im so in for this.. i think dave will be in on this to..

[alte schule]

I barely drive my Mk1 anymore, so any excuse to do so would be excellent. Let me know what dates you're thinking.

[MikEmKayIII]

agreed...low rabbits are banned from downtown
Im also down for this....just post a place and time....and ill bring my '80 diesel bunny

[Shawn B]

Hmmmm.............

Depends on where and when.

[VWADDICTDSCR]

OK so i've updated the original post with who's in or tenatively in for the meet/cruise.

How's about folks update when's a good date...maybe early July (weekend of the 11th) if that works for people? It's after Canada day and doesn't interfere with show dates if I remember correct. That way people have time to sort out any posisble issues that would stop them from coming.

What's everyone's thoughts on July 11th or 12th for the meet/cruise???

As for location it looks like we're having a lot of interest from both east and west end Toronto folks, some Niagara interest and even K/W area. For that reason i'm thinking of west end location's to meet and then maybe a cruise to the Forks or something?

Everyone post thoughts and suggestions

Andrew

[nestle]

Count me in

July 11th or 12th works for me.
That's one of the few weekends that I don't have a show somewhere else.

As for location, I really have no idea as I'm not local. I'll leave that up to the rest of you.

If this works out, we should make this an annual thing. It could be like Mk1 Madness North.

MK1 Madness "Canadian" Edition...love it..just hit up Esher in the US and run it by him...ask him if it's cool that we steal a little bit of his glam

As for location, I'm down with anything. It shouldn't matter though. I would suggest that true mk 1 followers will drive anywhere within reason to get together for this type of event...ask Dave, he does

Let's just agree on a cool place to create a mk1 annual mystique...

That's the original thought Jimmy and I had for this event

Wanna PM him brother to double check? If not that's cool. Hell maybe some of the US boys will come up to this as well if we can get his "backing" to use the name and I'll post the link into the Golf 1 forums as well

Looks like the 11th - 12th weekend's good for everyone. How's Sunday the 12th? can we set that in stone folks?

Alright so i'm going to take a look at some areas online and find out some 1/2 decent spots out there in the western part of the GTA as it seems like a good meeting point for most on the post so far.

Would people like to turn this into a BBQ as well? If so we can do that where we all pitch in together and bring what's needed to contribute and we have some food, stories, cruise and photoshoot??

What's your thoughts? Chime in with ideas, meeting places, photoshoot places, etc.. folks

[The Maytag Man]

Im in assuming mine is plated!

[OBD2]

IM IN >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>JIMMY U STILL ALIVE? LOL

[wikdslo]

I'll be in depending on location/time.

[aliendub]

Andrew...let me work on that West Ham nuttter on the naming rights and get back to you but I think he'll wonder why we can't come up with something original...he might wonder what were smoking up here..

So suggestion box is still open. Idea's are welcomed as long as MK1 is in the title...

Annual Mk1 Mayhem VW Event" is what I'll throw out there....

Agreed...gotta make sure to have spare parts, tools and a tow truck on hand...with all the MK1's around something's bound to happen LOL

[giulianot]

I'm sure i can make the trip with the cabby td, sounds like good fun

[cdn20VALVE]

I'm in,. I'm having troubles with the clutch, but I'll still come out.

I have no time to work on the mk1 lately, my TDI swap Audi is taking all my spare time.

Hey does anyone know of any Rabbits for sale? A friend of mine is looking to buy a MK1 to turn into a rat, so it doesn't have to be in flawless shape. As long as the body is in half-decent shape, it doesn't even have to have an engine he said. Let me know! I searched on Kijiji and found dozens of Cabriolet's but no Rabbits lol.

[cabriogal11]

Hey everyone me again Anyone know of a good garage - say south etobicoke area that can do a descent, affordable coolant flush - I suspect allot of gunk build up ( antifreeze - water combo froze winter) not driven let it defrost so i suspect its not looking pretty ):

Thanks when is this MK1 meet - me and my cabby want to join

[cabriogal11]

as the title states has anyone experience this - white thick smoke from under the hood - gas tank on reserve - rainy day (today) and a steady stream of white smoke with an awful smell not sweet -- from upper drivers side - could it be I had just added the lucas a day ago and to less than a quoter tank and gas is now on reserve?

I have tried to google and have not found an explanation and am wondering if this is what is causing smoke>

[matt currer]

Hey guys I recently purchased a Mk1 and i am ookng for some parts but have not had much success. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I need a rear bench seat and back, fender flares and the GTi pin stripping on the lower section of the body. Any guidance/assistance would be greatly appreciated Matt

[RationalReason]

[glx2.8]

i would have been down, but i got rid of mine last weekend....

[vee_dubb_ya]

I've got a choice of 3 mk1s, all in various states of "almost there"

- dad's caddy w/ the turbo diesel that's almost done being rebuilt
- dad's rabbit that is still gutted and wanting to be put back together after paint last year
- my caddy wanting the engine swap in a week

That being said, I'm definitely down for this. Oh, and Andrew, I've got those clamps for you, they're rusty and I'll have to use vice grips to get the nuts off...you'll get them in 1.5 week, I hope

[VWADDICTDSCR]

you sir are a god

[Thinker]

I may actually be able to make it out to this.
