Personally having messed with these for years exhaust wise to get the nicest exhaust sound out of these without it being loud is get rid of the cat, remove the centre box and use a classic mini rc40 back box! the back box being the perfect size makes the sound just right
Static. Going back to your roots would be great, the hustle of getting a car as low as possible while drivable is always a fun task; like your Passat wagon
It’s really a toss up but I’m on coilovers right now so I would like to see it bagged. I’m not knowledgeable on maintenance for bags but I’m sure it’s more than coilovers.
i can't wait until you start tearing into this thang! Its funny how you could literally be building a quarter million dollar vintage Ferrari or something, and we still would get more excited about you building a polo ! lol
If that's been loose, change the bearing. Id say that's just as dangerous as loose lugs... all it takes is the bearing to separate and you lose that wheel.
Coils! Every car you have is bagged! I’d love to see you design custom coilvers
This channel deserves more subs!
I appreciate that!
Bags make more sense for this particular situation, but I still 100% vote coilovers 😎
Haha I figured you would haha
Best regards from Poland. In my Polo I'm reworking the suspension from Golf MkI.
I‘d suggest coilover because you never know how much experience the future owner might have and coils do require much less maintenance.
Bags because it's your thing with all your cars
Sweet Polo John! My dad had one of these back in the 90’s. I remember the colorful interior. It would be fun to see it on bags.
Super cool, John! Im excited to see what you decide to do! Bags would be cool! Steering wheel and dash are sweet too!
Thanks Alex! Im excited about it!
I’d honestly for the bagged route since it’s more safe then static because it’s more safe to the components underneath the car like the oil pan.

That's awesome man!
Coilovers for sure!
Enjoyed the update and what you are thinking about doing. Looking forward to seeing the updates.
Thank you!

Static it has that hot hatch flavor
Static 🤘🏼
Solowerks Coilovers maybe?
Bags would be cool since u already did coils twice on this type of style car..
I subd to you because of Riverside 6 footage. Im from Chattanooga and im glad i found your channel.
I don’t need to tell you my opinion on the static vs bags thing 😂 lookin forward to seeing the process of getting this thing on the floor man
Hahaha thanks man!
Do coils on some three spoke wheels please
I'm in to it!
Bags!

I would say bagged.
Would be good to see custom bag setup. And it is more practical. Have driven few static cars, and it’s an experience in itself 😂
Yep! I've put together more belly dragging static cars than I have bagged cars over the years, and my back hates it now haha

Haha I really appreciate that man! I’m also excited to be tearing into it!

Yea that’s all completely toasted if it’s been driven on. All of that is getting replaced anyway, so it’s all getting tossed.
What is that additional tail light? Does US require fog lights on both sides or what?
It’s an OEM+ rear fog light!
@@JohnLudwick Yeah but why is it necessary?
It’s not necessary, that fog light was installed when the car was still in Germany!
@@JohnLudwick I have never ever seen this over here. Thanks man.
You need to sleep sometime John 🤣
Yes, I really do haha
Bag it
Was this an imported car or did VW actually sell these in America?
Its imported like he mentioned in the previous video.
It was imported from Germany. We never got the Polo in America
static for sure
Bag it
