Restoring a 40ish Year Old Engine Bay! MK1 Golf Engine Pull

Restoring a 40ish Year Old Engine Bay! MK1 Golf Engine Pull. 'Ey up, In today’s episode, we are tackling one of the most essential upgrades for any classic Volkswagen: the MK1 Golf manual swap. We are officially ditching the sluggish 3-speed automatic transmission and preparing the car for a much-needed 5-speed manual gearbox conversion. Before the new trans goes in, we’re doing a full engine bay light restoration. We’ve pulled the motor to get deep into the grime, degreasing 40 years of oil and dirt to get that factory-fresh look. What we cover in this video: Engine Removal: Stepping through the process of pulling a VW MK1 engine. Auto-to-Manual Conversion: The key differences between the 3-speed auto and the 5-speed manual setups. Engine Bay Prepping: Deep cleaning, rust prevention, and painting the bay while it's empty. Parts Overview: What you need for a MK1 gearbox swap (pedal box, shift linkage, and mounts). Whether you’re building a MK1 GTI, a Rabbit, or a classic Cabriolet, this swap is the best way to make your vintage VW more engaging to drive. 👕 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL (MERCH SHOP) Grab your official "Down The Rabbit Hole" gear here: 👉 https://downtherabbithole.myspreadsho... 📱 FOLLOW THE BUILD If you enjoyed this video, please SUBSCRIBE and hit the notification bell so you don't miss the next episode where we finally drop the engine back in and row through the gears for the first time we hope! #MK1Golf #VWRestoration #ManualSwap #VWRabbit #EngineSwap #VolkswagenMK1 #ProjectCar #DownTheRabbitHole #ClassicVW #EngineBayCleaning #5SpeedSwap #DIYAuto
