Time for my introduction.
ive been lurking for a long time. Im currently on my 3rd IDI, and second TD.
My current daily is a 91 ECOdiesel. This car has the same birthday as me and gets 50mpg all day everyday. I will post up my progress pics soon. I love it, no rust whatsoever.
I also have a 92 Corrado with 89k original miles. My family is probably the biggest VW collectors around..we are ***ing crazy. My name is Jake and ive had 20 VW's by the time I hit 23, I prefer everything before 93.

Thanks! I will post some of it eventually. It's hiding from the snow.
As far as the ECO goes; I finally got ahold of it after trying to buy it for around 6 years.
For 5 of these years it sat with the backend up on car ramps. PO ran it out of fuel and thought the ramps and more fuel would work.
Fast forward to last year. I tow dollied it home, put a timing belt and tensioner on it, and cracked the injector lines loose. Primed the pump and away it went after sitting for 5 years. Less than 24hrs it took.
I will leave it there for now until I get to a computer and post pictures.

Seems we are collecting Michigan men here. Welcome from one that has transplanted to the west.
