F/s 81 diesel Jetta

The lowdown......

I drove this car for a solid four months when I bought it. Then I got the idea in my head that a turbo would be a killer addition to this car, which of course it would be. It now has a turbo, but I have no time to work on it, and seeings how I'm moving to europe in september for awhile, I have no use for this car. As it stands, it hasnt ran yet. Partially cause im lazy, and partially cause its 40 degrees outside. There isn't much left to do, most of which I will be working on in the next few weeks. Things like fill it with oil and coolant and start it, a little bit of new fuel line, return lines from the injectors, etc, etc....

The good:

No Typical Mk1 Strut tower rot!
ARP Headbolts
1.9 3 notch metal headgasket
Wastegate line blocked off
2.5 inch downpipe
Mk2 cluster swap with tachometer and LED lighting
Pro Comp Boost and Pyrometer Gauges
Mk2 steering wheel
PIAA Super Plasma GTX H4 bulbs
Relayed Headlights
Tons of extra parts!!!!!!
Great snow tires with one season on em

The bad:

Passenger side front fenders got a bit of a large rust hole...
Bits of rust scattered about, cosmetic mostly
The usual Mk1 noises.


So obviously a bit of money went into this project. In hindsight I feel like a bit of an idiot for swapping out the good old N/a but I can't exactly change that so im just looking to recoup some money for my trip.







I'd like to get $2000 for it, but im open to offers....

Cheers
