SCIROCCO mk1 Istorija

"center">Most known models here are sciroco mk2(second edition)1981-1992, but I always wished to own earlier scirocco model mk1(1974-1980). At that time, I knew just two runing vechiles In Lithuania.So I star look for them, that wasn't easy.
Over a year search endend sms message about scirocco, which was seen in Kaunas.I called the owner, and started debate about purchase.(Trust me) Car was not in the best shape, few coat of paints, destroyed by wheather, rusty everywhere.So I even didn't look at the engine, bought long waited scirocco.

This is how just purchased scirocco looked.I had plans make it suitable for "drag" racings.Most lithuanian drag fans biggest atention focuses to veachiles technical mechanical part, then exterior or apearence.My scirocco was in very bad shape, so I have to fix car body.Thats why decided to repaint.Then I got much more different ideas, and started tiuning.

All summer it was fun to ride in my new Scirocco, participate in "drag" races and car shows. But there were plans on my
mind, how once again make my car unquie and give it a total makeover i felt it deserved. I have dreamt and seen on ther
internet information about the cabriolet. And soon enough started to put my idea into action by autum, when the show
season for was over. First step was to weld car body, put additional metal frame inside to make it stronger. Then started
sheet cutting. It was not the easiest of jobs.

I cut the roof off, then started planning the back of the car. At the beginning of the next spring, My car got new shape.
because of my busy schedule, I couldn't finish all my work involved, so for now I just put temporary hood. This scirocco
is my fun ride and only comes out in nice weather. Our summers sadly are short, so once again I got plenty ideas for
remodeling and makeover this winter. Hope you will see more results very soon....
