Car just needs too much work. Parting out. Post up or PM with what you need.

edit: Sorry I wasn't fully clear about this. Am going to hold onto the engine & tranny for the moment...

Just the Quantum stuff is available. :oops:

I see the beast's on eBay now. NW'ers'll snag it surely, even if it's a basket-case.

I've got an '84 in much better shape, with under 100k on it, that I picked up from a driveway in Memphis. Zero rust; just needs a repaint, and it's better than a $5,000 TDI-equipped high-mileage golf, jetta, or bug! God bless old diesel dubs!

If you get more than $300 for it, you're doing alright. Nobody wants to gamble with a non-running engine these days, and it looks like you've got some substantial water-damage inside; leaking seals are a pain to deal with, too!

I wish it was closer. Towing that beast back here on a tow dolly (over 400 miles) sounds not so fun....even so I'm giving it some consideration. I kinda just want the engine

IS thing still being parted out? I would like the exhaust manifold.
