Should be a good little car. I've been reading up on Digifant, cabby-info.com, and a couple others. If all else fails there is a parts car down the street....

Those kind of look like Mike's western wheels or BMW wheels. Scored a Bentley for 85-93 Cabriolets and Siroccos for 35 bucks shipped should be here this week. Also ordered plugs, wires, cap, and rotor through work. Ordered a coolant sensor and couple other things off autohausaz.com that I couldn't get through work. Should catch up on the maintenance next Monday and Tuesday. Next I'll get a timing belt, tensioner, and rubber valve cover gasket set after the 20th.

Pulled this out of cylinder one the rest were good but this one was destroyed. Did plugs, wires, cap, and rotor, fixed a few vacuum leaks (center heater works now), and a new exhaust clamp after the cat to fix the exhaust leak still needs a muffler. Runs like a champ now just needs two tires on the back and plates and she'll be truly road worth.
