Anyone Ever Run Across a Golf "El Camino"?

[The Fed]

Doesn't seem like it would be too hard for someone to make one if they know what they're doing.

Naming could be fun:

Der Camino
El Golfo
Der waggon-con-cama

Well, yes. I did find an older reference to a kit for MK4's.

My friend had one. Diesel version. Mid to late 70’s model.

I just returned from Mexico and saw plenty of home built Mark II and Mark III home built Golf El Caminos.

Over here in UK we got the MK1 Caddy "Sport" late on in the MK1 Caddy life (basically years 1990 to 92)

Basically the 1.8lt 8v GTI engine & other GTI bits fitted..



But GTI Engineering (UK tuner) offered a rare 1.8lt GTI conversion upgrade package far earlier ...

Picture is a screen shot of the info from the above link.invoice dated 1986..

Could be done to a GSW say with awd (Alltrack/R)......nice cut line using the existing crease running the length of car...

& GTI Engineering was started by Richard Lloyd & he ended up running VW racing dept as he was based just down the road from VW UK HQ
