Title: Introducing myself
Post by: carraca on September 22, 2012, 05:23:31 am: Hi,
My name is Marcos, I am wrintting from the Canary Islands.

I am very happy to have found this forum.
I am very familiar with aircooled VW but have recently bought an 84 Passat TD (Quantum in America). Since this is my first rebuilt of a diesel watercooled I was plenty of questions... but using the seach tool I found the answer to 95% of them :)

I am surprised by the ammount of knowledge stored in this forum... ;D ;D ;D

this part of the country, they are..

last quantum TD i saw was blown up, and in idaho..

quantums themselves are NOT rare, but TD ones are..

on the west coast, TD anything is RARE..

GRRRRR!! there happens to be an ocean in between us!

otherwise i would trade you in a HEART BEAT..

if i dont end up trading the Audi for a sweet TD, then im gonna convert it to TD.. i would love to have an Audi GTD.. but would rather have a Passat..

is your car a 1.6TD powered car? or did it come with the 2.0L TD5?

Anyway do you have any pictures of your car? It would be great to see an early passat!
