I love the new GTI. I had one just like it. It brings back so many memoriues, pretty sweet it already has a 16V in it, that is a step a head already. you are money a head if you keep that motor. If you are not what are you going to do with it.

Can't wait to see the progress pics.

Oh man, I know that car, it hasn't run right in like 4 years. Multiple problems, from what I know. I can put you in touch with the guy that brought it into missoula like 6 or so years ago. I knew that David was getting rid of it, but I didn't know it was going to be that fast. I thought he was going to pull the motor and tranny, but maybe he got lazy........you wanted a project, you got it man..........not trying to sound like a dick here, but that car has history.......it sat for like 2 years once because it needed a clutch or something........now that I know it is that car, make it a roundie!

Like I said in my previous post, I knew it's been around the block.
I was looking for a ground up project anyways.
I am not afraid of building cars.

The engine is getting pulled and either rebuilding it from scratch or doing an engine swap.
I know I have alot in front of me but it's nothing I haven't done before with the 20+ cars i've owned.
Trust me, when I am done with it you won't recognize it with the exception of the roll cage insde.
I knew you'd say something about it because I knew you knew it's history. that's ok because I did too!

I figured that you probably knew the history, and I wasn't trying to be an ass about it. If you need 16V parts, I have a bunch, some are spoken for by me, but some are just extras. I am actually quite glad to see that it is going to be rescued! I was kinda bummed that he was going to send it to the yard, but I also knew that I couldn't adopt another one. Anyway, if you need help with anything, let me know, I need some inspiration to get back into my MK1 project 16v.
