No worries, it was my mistake, not yours. I had it repaired at the end of the day and called him with the total. He said he was going to PayPal right then, and I knew if I waited until I received...

I assume that you mean the green vacuum fluorescent dash? Check ebay.de, but expect to pay $500+ for a good one. I've repaired a couple of them and do have many of the parts if you have one that is...

The stock fuel pump, if in good shape and getting fuel voltage is fine for a car with EFI, even taken pretty far past the stock turbo, etc.

As for a replacement pump, that same pump was used on...

Eric,
I would look at the ignition module, coil to distributor wire and perhaps flywheel sensors. I had an ignition module fail with the same kind of symptoms. After that, I kept a couple spares...

Usually the first spot that rubs is on the rear valance at the top mounting screw, especially if the circumference is any larger than stock. The cars with rolled fenders have that mounting screw...

Ditto. I would also much rather have a car that I can drive - not like I can drive mine either though. That said, if I had had the space and money for a collector car, I would have bought it when...

Apples to oranges. A highly modified ur quattro is not comparable to an original, low mileage ur quattro, just as you can't compare a mint original 10k mile '70 Hemi 'Cuda to another '70 Cuda built...

Yes, it can be done but you need to be VERY, VERY careful as the clips are no longer available and the trim is very easily bent. Personally, I wouldn't recommend removing it unless you have...

I do need to edit one of my posts. What is the deal with not being able to by default? I am on a LOT of these forums, and this is the only one not set to be able to edit by default.

They're nuts, although I would love to see it sell for that. I posted info about this a few months ago, and there is a picture of the complete set in my picture album here. If it were complete, it...

Well, after what I have heard from one of the potential bidders, I am 99% convinced that this is for real. The owner didn't think that the car would go for much, or that the ad would be met with...

The front subframe is directly swappable. If you have an early car with the rear sway bar, then the rear is much more involved. The only parts that you use from an early ur quattro if converting...

The report says that the car was manufactured and shipped to a dealer 12/22/82. That is it.

Just a few minutes left. I'm leaning toward scam right now, but hoping that it is real.

I got a similar response. I do think that it may be for real and that someone is going to get what may be the rarest ur quattro there is for a song, but then again I am a poor judge of character.

Maybe. Maybe not. It does look awfully clean under the hood, even if it is missing some things, like the rain tray and strut cap covers.

The other odd things are what seems to be the lack of...
