its not that bad really.  I did my whole conversion for less than a hundred dollars when it was all said and done.  you have most everything you need already.  My best advise is to figure out who has cars sitting in their backyards .  they are a much better source than the classifieds at a much better price.

Most of the vehicles I have ever owned have been purchased from out of someone's yard.  I know where there's a mkii GTI that I know has been sitting since 2005.

I did a hunt through the "field" yesterday looking for that old 1.5 block I had so I could steal it's bracket.  No dice.  I did find the complete under carriage w/1.8 motor and tranny from my first mkii jetta, and a complete 1.8 fox motor and tranny.  I forgot I had those!  I'm going to give PartsPlace a call tomorrow and see what they can offer.

Not to hijack your thread but I just found a cabriolet with a good body.
I have a 1.5 with a 4 speed
The cabriolet has an auto trans...think the 1.5 will work with the auto?
