Sounds good, but stay away from engine stuff like the longblocks as everyone is doing them. External parts on the engine would be cool. Body and suspension components, even just stock, for all the T3s is a great idea! Front end components, like the lower bushings and bearings 'n stuff on the front end are nonexistent (basically) so you would need to find a unused set and tool some new ones. Not a lot of T3s around so the business wouldn't be highly profitable but establishing reputable contacts with other business for distribution would certainly help. I like the idea!

So here's the BIG question.....Is there anyone that is a VW dismantler and warehouser that is doing a profitable and reputable business of selling these used parts? My brother-in-law and I were sitting around and bitching about the future of our jobs, and were throwing out some ideas. We started crunching numbers on a business plan to provide reconditioned pans, rebuilt front-ends, longblocks, etc. Just an idea that came out of the heat and frustration. Its late and its Friday. Only to be young and have no responsibility. I need to catch a buzz off my arthritis medication.......WERE ARE THOSE D*MN PILLS!!!!!!!! Stephen and Roslea Weiford sweiford@concordnc.com
