A heads up to you guys who need parts

[frankentoy]

i just wanted to chime in and let you guys in on the place to buy parts from for VW.  you may already know of them but if you dont its worth a call..thank me later.  Euclid Forien Auto in Cleveland Oh.  I didnt realize how good their prices were until i had called VW Diesel parts.com to order a head gasket and 2 valves. i ended up not using that gasket because i damaged it, i paid 36.00 for it and bought another from Euclid...24.00 from them.  VW Diesel Parts wanted 100.00 for a new set of lifters, i got a set for 76.00.i rebuilt my 1.6 td buying everything from Euclid and probably saved over 100.00 versus anywhere else.
heres a few prices i paid at Euclid
glow plugs-10.00 ea
main bearing set-36.00
head bolts- 1.40 ea
fast relay-16.00
O/S td piston set- 300.00
valve guides-2.50 ea
inj shields- .75 ea

And they stocked almost everything i needed. and when it wasnt in stock i had it in 2 days..shipped to me.  ask for Marty tell him jason sent you
216 481-9200
