Techie's Photo Thread- 1998 2.0
Hello everyone. I am new to being an NB owner and I have a lot of work ahead of me. I have just started to work on my sisters old car, so I can use it in the winter. Here is a list of everything I need to do to it:
- New driver and passenger door latch/microswitch
- New hatch latch
- Fix the paint (Clear coat)
- New rear brakes
Anyways to tell you about the car. It is a 1998 Beetle with the 2.0 which is mated to the 4 speed auto
(I love manual). It has about 186,000 Km on it, only 300km in the last year! I have a bunch of plans with it and I will update you with lots of photos and stories
The only thing I have done to the car (had the car for about 2 weeks) is a homemade intake. Unfortunately I wasn't able to take the car for a drive but it sounded nice in the drive way.
So heres two pictures; I only had time to grab these two when I was there working on it.
The homemade intake
(Will be painted later and the filter is off of my Escort's Weapon R intake kit)
OH YEAH....I need help with names for my beetle
