91 Avant on the Marketplace.

[Ed Kellock]

It does seem that he regularly parts out cars so it would be no big deal for
him to do so with this one.  However, he had offered it whole, which I don't
believe I've ever seen him do, so I believe that's a nod to its rarity,
based on his track record.  

I hope somebody picks this one up and keeps it on the road.

Ed

The guys been parting cars as a business or side-business for a while now.
He's dealt mostly with '90/'91 Coupe Quattros, and has seemingly parted
quite a few decent examples.  He probably bought this car with the intention
of parting it all along.  Wheels, steering rack if its in good shape,
windows regs, etc.  Not too hard for it to add up.  He's not cutting you a
deal either, based on the prices I've seen him advertise...
