Default justin's new breezy: 1986 vw scirocco wolfsburg

well, the executive decision was made last week to strip delilah due to excessive frame rot...thusly, i needed a new car (and fast!). i've known about this particular car for over 5 years, and i would occasional pester the owner to sell. well, he finally cracked, and here i am, $800 poorer and one scirocco richer. it's not the cleanest 1986 scirooco i've ever seen, but what dents it has can be pulled inexpensively, and what rust on the body there was has been por-15'd. there is absolutely NO FLOOR ROT either (a HUGE thing for pre-mk4 vw's). i picked it up last week, and i've finally taken it on a decent trip.

since i've had it, the following has been replaced or repaired:


-new battery
-used alternator (from toad)
-new fuel lines
-fixed taillights

all in all, it's a fun car, even if it only makes 100hp. the close-ratio gearbox does make up for that though, as several newer and more powerful cars have seen my previously non-working taillights.

car was totalled over the summer when someone backed up into it. it did, however, receive rear disks, a 16v, and some other goodies before i realized it'd never pass ct salvage inspection...so it's for sale for $500.

i now have an audi 90 quattro 20v with lots of mods and more to come.
