Ken,
If you are interested, I've got a bunch of 14" 4x100 VW Snowflakes off my old GTI's. Not 15", but way closer and cheaper.

I'd love em

Haven't posted here in a long time but I think some of you or somebody you know might be interested in the car a coworker is trying to sell.

1990 Audi Coupe Quattro
http://boston.craigslist.org/nos/cto/4982387507.html

I've seen this in person and up on a lift at work and can attest that while not perfect it is a solid car that he's put time and money into to maintain & repair. He's only getting rid of it due to storage costs and wishing to downsize his automotive stable. For any questions and/or offers regarding the car please contact him via the craigslist ad.

drat, that's nice.

FREE 1988 VOLVO 244DL

That's right, it's free to the first person that wants it (and of course actually shows up). Body is in good shape but it needs paint, interior is in good shape, it will need a drivers door window. Doesn't come with an engine but a M47 transmission is included for shigs.

If you've been looking for something to drop a V8 into and go troll the local Camaro/Mustang crowd, this is a perfect starting point. Best part being that it's 100% loving FREE, of course.

Located in Charlottesville, VA. Come and get this thing out of my driveway before I have to move.

drat it, the worst timing.

Guys, my dad wrecked his 2010 Jetta TDI. I want it. So one of my cars has to go:

1998 Jetta TDI with ALH Frankenmotor
$1,500� Dacula, Georgia
Well, my dad wrecked his 2010 Jetta TDI, which I want. So I gotta let my guy go.

Its a 1998 Jetta TDI, 301,000 miles on it. I put in a 2001 ALH motor combined with the AHU intake and turbocharger, which while lacking the VNT turbo, it still has plenty of get up and go. Had to add a lift pump for the 11mm IP, which is powered by the fuel cutoff switch.

Mods:
- ALH Block, Head, and Automatic 11mm IP
- Bosio Sprint 556 Injector nozzles
- ARP Headstuds

New:
- Front wheel bearings
- Piston rings
- VR6 clutch, throwout bearing, and pressure plate.
- Heater core
- Battery
- Ignition Switch. Starter is currently on an external covered switch from when the ignition switch was bad, but can be removed now. I just never bothered.
- Harmonic Balancer
- Ball joints.

Rebuilt:
- AC compressor, system blows ice cold

Bad:
- It needs new rear wheel bearing races, the car drives fine but the races are just no good.
- Muffler is starting to rust out.
- Paint looks like crap. Clear coat is flaking. But minimum of rust.
- No timing belt cover due to the condition the ALH was in when I recovered it from its donor car.

I'll get photos when I get home.

$75 + shipping each or $125 for the lot. They're heavy so it's probably a long shot but I thought I'd offer em up.

I'm interested in the Elitebook.
