[urq] Junkyard Urq updateFluhr ejfluhr at austin.ibm.comTue Nov 27 17:46:22 PST 2007
FYI, for those who have been following, I will be buying the junkyard Urquattro as intact as I can get it. They won't transfer any paperwork on it, so I have to buy as parts (e.g. $300 for chassis, $200 for engine, $300 for rear clip, $100 for tranny, $50 for each door, etc.). At least I'll save it from being crushed, and then decide what to do with it. Currently the junkyard said it isn't too taken apart. It is missing the turbo and some intake stuff, wheels, front struts, some interior pieces, and someone pulled out the tranny but left it on the ground, so who knows what kind of damage they did there. :-( I am probably paying too much at $2200, but I didn't want to risk them saying no and letting it get torn to pieces. My dad grabbed the receipts and it listed some ABT parts (camshaft, fuel regulator, ECU, maybe the turbo was), so I am hoping those are still on it and can offset the cost. I will have pictures on Friday after my father visits the junkyard and checks out the car prior to payment (the car is in Orlando, I'll have to deal with it over Christmas vacation). I still don't know if this can be titled/recovered or needs to be a track-only chassis due to the certificate of destruction on it. If anyone can help there, I would certainly appreciate the info.
