Not sure if you really wish it were a diesel. Those early VW diesels were a far cry from modern diesels. They were VERY slow.

Would be cool to get parts from an '83-84 GTI and put in. GTI seats and interior panels, maybe GTI gauges, GTI bumpers, GTI grill GTI wheels would look great on that car and would be a bolt on upgrade most likely.

Found this one online, similar color as yours with GTI wheels, bumpers , wheel arches, and grill:

I have had several, converted one from diesel to gas (basily a GTI swap) GTI door panels don't fit as the pick uses the smaller doors from the 4 door and I would lave to have another one, one day. I have an NOS VW rear tonneau cover still, a Kamie hood scoop & MOMO rims for if I ever get another one..
