This is certainly not what I expected down here.

Getting ready to pack up my tools, and drive many hours to look at a 74 2.0

Need to head to the bank and get a certified check and pocket of cash in case. I am sort of dismayed my blue car is taking so long and I sold a few things. I am also selling my RHD syncro Golf.


Fingers crossed this pans out. I really want something clean and nice to drive around this year on nice days to work and etc.

My 75 is Pandora's box. I am not giving up but I realize it is going to take a while to get what i want out of it.

Bust. It was in pretty decent shape, but it is basically where mine was minus the horrible bodywork.

For the price I expected a little wear and tear but super clean. There was evidence of a previous front end hit, and one of the front forward control arm/torsion bar mounts was at a completely different angle from the other one. There was a ton of rust and welding rod stuck near it, it had factory a/c and the front trunk was cut with some awesome rot starting. Coincedentally right around the passenger control arm mount that was off angle. Looked like some sort of front end damage and rust. Surface on the battery tray, and in the hell hole it was about the same as my 75. Once you get that paint off you will be digging chunks of metal out.
