A useless collection of stuff.

Rabbit

This is not your average furry animal that reproduces too quickly. Granted, I swear the owners of these little cars will say they reproduce on their own. An owner will start with one, then magically, others start to appear in your driveway, garage, backyard, and arrive in pieces. Mine was born an 1984 Volkswagen Rabbit GTI. Originally purchased for under $400 in 2003 as an addition to my fleet. At that point I had a 1984 Rabbit GTI and another 1983 Rabbit GTI as a parts car (see, I told you they reproduce on their own). It started as a solid (or close to it) daily driver/project. It went through a couple different paint schemes during my ownership, a suspension swap, multiple exhaust swaps, one engine swap, wheel swap, and a fifth gear swap.  Currently its stays in a hot garage in the summer and cold one in the winter, but out of the extreme elements (I really just don’t want to wash it all the time).

Quick stats:

-2.0 ABA engine swap
-GIAC chip
-Intake
-Headers
-2.25″ exhaust to Magnaflow Muffler
-Weitec GT 60/40 suspension.
-13″ BMW BBS wheels. Came off of the early 3-series and late model 2002s. (Can someone tell me the name of these wheels??)

And a few pictures of its current state.
