right, here's the story: 69 square, FI, AT. looks like the AT is about to go any day. 170k miles on original (never rebuilt) engine ==> will need rebuilt soon. doesn't idle when warm, and i've been working on this for months. badly needs paint, and a driver's door. needs headliner. seatcovers and carpet aren't up to much either. no rust really. if i keep it, i'm looking at ~$1000 for a rebuilt tranny. and another ~$1000 for an engine rebuild. that's just to get it going. then there's paint, a door, headliner, and whatever else. OR, i can take it down to the local pick-n-pull and get $500 for it, by virtue of it starting, moving back and forth under its own steam, and having been registered for the last 2 years. before i take it, i'll take some of the harder to find parts from it (rear trunk liner, am/fm sapphire, some good seals, working clock, original toolkit, etc.) which could get me up to $500 if i sold them. it's my daily driver, and whilst i don't need it for work, it does have to be moved twice a week at least to prevent it from being towed. i can't really afford to have two cars, either. i would replace it with another ac vw if i chose the latter option, don't worry. what do my fellow listees think? i'd also gladly sell it to any of you.... sonny ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
