'79 rabbit parts car - SE ID

[79rabbit4dr]

I've been getting several request for people buying JUST my diesel w/out the parts car... i'm not sure why, you could make back a few hundred bucks by selling parts but whatever. So this thread is to gauge interest in the parts and rolling shell.

I had another thread a while back but it's all cluttered and out of date so these are new pictures I took tonight with everything in it's current (june 17th '09) condition. I'll take pix of the shell tomorrow when it's light.

here is the photo album. I haven't labeled/priced anything yet, it's late, i'll do it in the am. sorry mod's, promise i'll do it quick!

ask away, make offers, lowballers encouraged 

shipping is no problem so long as you pay for it

yes it's a pink blanket, that's why it's getting greasy, my wife took the pix, sorry if they're blurry.

Hi, Do you have an oil filter adapter plate that would go on a 80 Dasher diesel, the kind with the inlet fitting on top for the coiled oil line that goes to the vacuum pump?
Oh, and where are you?
Thanks,
Ron

I don't, sorry. The diesel is staying in tact and the gasser is getting parted out, so unless the gasser filter plate is what you're looking for, I got nothing. Sorry, these are the only two VW's I have.

What size pistons are those, standard?

I might make another nice parts order from you, to go with that head and such I got from you before.

yup, just stock parts as far as I know... I can do some measuring if you want to double check fitment. How's everything working out so far?

side note:
look what I did today

Well, just wondering if they were oversize. I'm still slowly working, but keep getting sidelined by paying work. :p I have a coworker's Mk3 Golf that's getting a complete engine bay refreshing this week.

I found a place where I can get new gas pistons, but I'd really rather buy from someone private first. I need .020 oversized. The diesel block has standard 76.5mm pistons, so first oversize would work.
