Hi everyone. New to the mk1 scene but not to modifying world at all.
It's looking likely that I've scored myself a 71 mk1 recently, and as per usual I'm keen to start the build plan. The goal so far would be a patina-ed and signwritten promo van for a local business.
One of the first things I was interested in was methods used to dramatically lower these old buses. My understanding is (haven't actually seen it yet) is that both front and rear use spring-over-axle setup, so the obvious next step is to spring under I presume? Or would boxing and notching the chassis and changing to a 4link be more appropriate. Not after a race car, just need it low.
I've also struggled to come across much in the way of inspiration in regards to modified mk1s online. Is there a reason i'm missing? Are they just hard to work with or something?
Cheers all.
