94 TDI Passatt wagon 5-speed. Yes-NO?
« on: March 08, 2007, 05:33:47 pm »
So, I've been all hot and heavy to build up a fat 1.6/1.9headTD , Bought two motors for the build, have my 1.9 head.  Last night my neighbor walks over and offors to sell me his 1994 TDI Passatt wagon.  5-spd, nice body, real clean.  Engine has about 115,000 miles on it.  2 sets of tires and rims, and he wants about $6,000 for it.  I was planning on looking for a later model Passatt wagon  next year.  I wanted to finish up my 1.6td project and go on to build a fast 1.9td to drop in one.  I figured I could pick up a higher milage, or blown motor early 2000ish year model and drop the motor in.  Gassers are cheap.  Now I'm torn.  Someone show me the light. :?
