if it is mechanically sound i wouldn't mind having an auto vr6. i'm not too fussy on looks as long as it will serve me well. my current golf auto has 130000 miles on it. what do you want for it?

Shell itself is straight. Other than the paint. The doors wings etc aren't.  Could be used as a very long term project. Dunno I'll see when it's stripped down.

Wouldn't cost me a grand though. :)

Nah I've always wanted to do a PD130 MK3. Could be a solid shell to stick in the garage and do it.

Probably do the full spray myself or atleast prep it. They say no painter likes to work off someone elses prep but since I used to prep cars for paintwork at the garage for him, he will. :)

Dunno I'm spitballing. All I know is I have an afternoon to get cracking on getting this VR6 in!

It's between PD MK3 or MK2 and VR6 MK3 and MK2.

Unfortunately I just don't need two cars. I don't even need one car only a van. I think I need to diesel this shell and let the GF drive it. :evil:
