Iv been a car enthusiast since 2001 i was 15 and couldn’t wait to drive. I bought the car about 13 years ago as a winter beater for $1,500 it was a black 1987 Golf GTI with 80k  from a  kid in  CT that had got it for his first car from his grandparents he told me he drove the car to school and back for 2 years. The only thing done to the car was he changed the small doors and small  with big door/ bumpers.  i was now  the 3rd owner,  once i got the car home and gave it a good look over i couldn't let myself drive a car  that had vary little rust in the winter, so i cleaned it up put wheels and coilovers on it and drove it for a few summers. after a few years of going to shows i had a itch to build a car that would stand out at one of these shows. winter of 2016 i striped the car down and started the restoration. im not a mechanic or a body guy by trade but iv learned alot from friends who were and i wanted to do the most i could on my own. There’s a lot more to the story but I won’t bore you. Staggered will be my debut show! I have a few future plans for next season to improve the car and make it 100% perfect in my eyes.
