Topic: Whaddya think?

1995 Audi A6 Quattro, 2.6L, 5 speed. Car has been a parts car for a local foreign auto repair place. Missing the entire dashboard, steering wheel, and a couple of other bits we wouldn't keep anyway. Runs great. Drivetrain, suspension all in good shape. Shop owner was going to move the engine into another A6, but decided to make us an offer we couldn't refuse.

Alright, gents. Give me your thoughts.

Would be a wicked car if it rains! We need more Audis out there - go for it!

Make sure you can document your spending though, a mid 90s Audi might raise some suspicion. Document the shape it is in as much as possible.

Re: Whaddya think?

Yeah. I think a couple of photos of the partially gutted interior will help. Pre-sale gutted interior.

Re: Whaddya think?

Document that build VERY well.  Sounds like a nice-ish car.  Great find, but they will want proof you paid what you said you paid.

Sounds like fun! But yes, bring lots of proof it's not >$500.

Re: Whaddya think?

Late-ish model German cars with electrical issues are legitimate $500 cars. The Judges know this, and won't sweat you too hard. Bring good scotch or bourbon to bribe the corrupt bastards, anyway.
