4est's garage

[4est]

My garage. Right now it houses a 81 rabbit s, 78 westy and a 95 b4 vr6 wagon. and a whole lot of engines/trans


Got a b4 parts car. gutted it this weekend. got some good stuff for my wagon. black carpet, front bumper and random other bits. Had a good running motor. will be using the aba block&tranny for a different project. (kevs rocco).

got lots of odb1 2.0stuff head, intake.... that is up for grabs. the best part is i drove this car into my garage. 100 bucks, couldn't pass it up.

I am looking for a straight b4 drivers front fender.. if any one knows let me know. l5ny paint. royal blue (purple!)

I will post up progress made here rather than make build threads...

Check out discountbodyparts.com. I got a fender for around $115 shipped. When I went to pre fit the fender I didn't have to do anything to it. I give them an A+.

this it what happens to type 4 heads. this the the orig motor 4 my bus.


And my dumb passat is apart 4 wheel bearings. and i discovered this. bearing separated and smoked a hub.

But after this weekend she will be back in order. New wheel bearings, one hub, ball joints, tie rod ends, sway bar end links and new rotors and pads. AND motor mounts. what a pain...

^ Went through that recently too on my VR jetta, the f-in idiot was driving the car with no inner rear wheel bearing, tore up everything back there!

It will come primed. You will have to get it painted. The paint doctor in the heights did a good job.

Looks like things are snowballing in the I need parts category! Sorry about the bad luck. I know that category very well.

picked up this little gem...

1973 BMW 2002. Taiga green, weber carb. Some kid left it at v-dubs&more, after a little man hunt i convinced the owner to sign the title over to me and i pay the mechanics bill plus storage for almost three years. I almost feel bad that i got it so cheap. Hats off to Eric at v-dubs for hooking me up!!
the best part.. New battery, check fluids pull out key that was stuck in the driver door and BANG! fired right up! Drove it around the neighborhood.

Man, I used to have a 76, and I loved that thing. It looks fairly straight also. You will have to ask your insurance co. about collector status on that thing. I have a friend in Seattle that bought one for $2900, long story short it got totalled by his neighbor, and the ins. co. first offer was $7500!! There is one in the autofinder here in Missoula, and they are asking $10,000 for it. Nice find.
