Re: [T3] New listee, new T3


Yes, ALL OG sticker, including window sticker (not sales, but the small
vw ones on rear glass) are present. All she is missing is OG spare. All
compartments, are mint.
The bad: Front fenders in top corners are gone, and driver fender lower
is shot. Inside front tub is rusty due to fender leakage. With new
driver fender, or lots o fixing, it wil not be difficult to repair this,
and reshoot lacquer to match nearly perfect OG finsih everywhere else.
She is also missing front vw emblem, it appears as if it was stolen,
since studs are broken. Engine compartment is near perfect, but of
course dirty. Stickers on coil even there....Wish my bus was like
this..... Trans seems to have ooze on nose cone, will report more when
she's in the lab up in the air....Pics wil be available by later next
week.

What is correct ig. Timing, and in what condition? Vac to dizzy off on?
Dymanic at rpm? Static baselining at x.x deg ok to start?>


Hoping the OG am/fm plays..... :) But not as much as I hope the engine
will run!
