Mk2 Volkswagen Jetta 8v Wannabe Racecar Walkaround /Idle Sound

Описание: I bought this car in stock condition with 160k miles in April 2000, and this is the car in September 2014 with 243k. It was a daily driver until June 2005 when the current suspension/wheel/brake setup was fitted, at witch point it became a garaged summer car not driven in the rain or salt since. It's a 1992 Jetta GL, originally with a RV engine and AUG transmission. The original unibody rusted out and in 2002 I bought a rust-free 91 Jetta, cleaned it up, and swapped all the guts over during a long weekend in 2003, and junked the original bodyshell. It drives and handles great. It's loud inside and visceral, you can feel everything, has great engine response, and is utterly reliable.

This car has had numerous stock parts replaced over the years, too much to mention. Always using quality fluids like Mobil1, Redline gear oil, Redline CV-2 Axle/Bearing grease, Lubro-Moly additives, and ATE Super Blue brake fluid. Always using paints like POR-15, Eastwood, Rust-o-leum, G2 caliper paint, SEM self etching primer.

Griot's detailing products have also brought my chalkboard paint and trim back a lot. I keep it covered in the garage and I cover it at work so It doesn't bake out in the sun all day
