The engine and transmission has about 25 miles on it. The details are below. New floor pan on the right side (battery side). I just don't have the time and I am getting out of VWs. It comes with 2 sets of rims, 5 stock rims with tires and 4 Empi style 8 spoke (no tires). Feel free to contact me with questions. I am throwing in pretty much all the parts, books and VW specific tools I don't need anymore with the car. I have the T bar front bumpers, but they aren't installed.

Engine (everything below was new when installed):
Bore - 94
Stroke - 69

Holley Electric Fuel pump

Turbo:
It was supposed to be an under the decklid kit. Without some major modifications, I don't see this really fitting under the decklid without cutting into it. So, I decided to just leave the decklid off for now.
The headers are a custom 4 to 1 into a T-3 turbo manifold. It is wrapped with header wrap.
The turbo is a T-3 with a carbon seal, internally waste gated.

Hey westypoo,
I don't know the exact market for a car like this with this engine and condition. I plan on starting at what I believe is somewhat reasonable. I am also looking for a best offer.

If there is no interest, I will probably just hold onto the car until I finish it.

Cheers,
