FS: Parting out 1986 Golf diesel, car in Marengo, OH
« on: November 30, 2008, 07:03:54 pm »
The car currently starts, runs, and will drive around my mom's driveway, so you know that much works. ;)

The car is located in 43334.

For the purpose of body parts, the car is Deep Cosmic Blue LE5C, although I've also got a few Quartz Grey Metallic LA8V doors off of my old Jetta lying around if you need those. Interior is blue, I also have a black dashboard out of that Jetta (I think, anyway.)

Engine was reringed approximately 23,500 miles ago by oilhammer, timing belt was done approximately 28,000 miles ago by MOGolf. Since the reringing, it's been run on Rotella T 5w40 synthetic oil. For approximately 20,000 miles (not the last 20,000, though,) it was run on B20 biodiesel from the Sunoco in Mt. Gilead, OH. The IP did not leak. (Engine has SOLID lifters.)

Odometer on this cluster works, and reads 193,1xx miles. However, this is not the original odometer, and the face on this cluster is cracked (you can't really see it with the cluster installed, but it is cracked.) I do also have a cluster reading 204,xxx without a cracked face, but the odometer doesn't work.

Transmission needs a mainshaft and replacement 5th gear, but is otherwise good. Maybe it'll be good for parts for someone or something...

The car has a pair of Recaro seats out of a 91 GLI, they do need recovering, though.

A pair of Hella 6054-replacement E-codes is available.

Ask if a part is available, and make an offer if it is. =)

Partial price list:

Engine with injection pump: $500 OBO

Pair of Recaro Mk2 GTI/GLI front seats (non-power): $100 OBO

Transmission: $35 OBO

Hella H6054 E-code replacement lights: $50 incl. shipping within US OBO

With Westy radiator support and beat up grille: $75 plus shipping OBO

Westy radiator support and grille alone: $40 plus shipping OBO

Window regulator: $25 incl. shipping within US OBO

List of stuff that is sold:

Instrument cluster (one still available, with a broken odometer)
Steering wheel
One center cap for original steelies (three still available)

Driver's seat:





Passenger's seat:

You'll have to arrange for shipping yourself, if you choose to go that route.

FWIW, before I get any other IMs... this engine's out of an 85 Jetta, and is 85 in every way. Solid lifters, no idle boost on the pump, no ADA, nothing. That stuff didn't start until 1986.5, so even if the Golf had its original engine, it'd still be 1986.0 stuff. :)

Also, at this time, I'm not interested in separating the pump from the engine.

Pretty bad rust, the unibody's tweaked from a collision, and I just decided not to deal with it any more. ;)

I'll have to look into it, although something tells me shipping is gonna be ridiculous.

ACH. Do note that the 5th gear and mainshaft are shot, though, so it's effectively a 4-spd now. Great for parts, or for something dirt cheap to get your dead car moving, but that's it.

(Unless, of course, you want to replace the mainshaft.)

Dashboard pics (lower dash isn't installed, but I have it. Center console is a regular blue one, not the 1985 Golf diesel console.)

OLD pictures of the headlights (and Westy setup):



I don't have a pic of the grille, but I will note that the clips are broken and chrome is pitted. :(

I got a really rough quote of $30, but I'm not sure if that'll be accurate, considering how big the box will be, and I was assuming 25 lbs per seat.

I'll ask someone who regularly ships seats how he packages them, and about how much weight to expect...

(And, that quote doesn't include packaging, so...)

Oh, and let's just say that I think that quote will be quite low.
