I have an 84 Jetta body that is currently complete but, I'm about to pull the TD out of it to put in my 82 Jetta. The 84 has a 5sp tranny. I'm wondering what I could expect to get out of the body minus a few trim parts. Any ideas? Is it worth my effort to part it out?
Thanks,
PS: Its in Lancaster County, PA.
I should have stated that the body is in pretty good condition. I believe it is an LX. It has a sunroof. I haven't tried to open it though. The only rust that I've noticed is on the rocker panel behind the rear door.
Yeah, going rate is whatever you can get.
Tranny: $100
Body: $200 (depending on condition)
You gotta think, who would want to buy this?
Usually it is a racer project (either SCCA or drag)
and they will have to spend a TON of money to get it right again.
You will make more money parting it,
but will have a lot of more headaches to offset your additional income.
Good luck!
