[QUOTE]Originally posted by EPIK: [QB] Got tired of breaking the bank driving to work & putting tons of miles on my Stangs. Since my dad picked up my old 86 Jetta GLI from me last year when i bought the 95, he didnt need his old 84 VW Rabbit GTI anymore, so he gave it to me... Its actually in pretty decent shape for a 24 year old car & it runs great & it gets 30+mpg. It has a 1.8 liter 8V & a close ratio 5 speed. My dad was a VW mechanic for 30 years so he got everything up to par before he gave it to me....Although i would love to lower it & do a 16V or 1.8T swap, I dont plan on doing any mods. I do plan on removing the bubbled up window tint, repainting the bumpers black, installing a CD player, & it needs struts & shocks BAD!!! Other than that, its a strong runner...The original interior is even in decent shape, with the exception of the driver seat....Not bad for a car my dad picked up for $500 a few years ago....

Even with a razor blade, it still has a film that wont come off. The rear window has the defroster lines & they will peel off if I try to use a razor blade. Anyone know a good way to get the tint off, or am i better off going to the wrecking yard & getting some used glass??? [/QB][/QUOTE]
