Looking for Audi Diesel.

[Brady Moffatt]

Hi George,

Consider looking at a type 43 such as the one that just went for 75$ on
ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2413962305&cat
egory=6055

There was another one on ebay within the past couple of weeks in Washington
state, IIRC.

www.car-part.com has a few, too. It's a scrapyard database.

Cheers,
Brady Moffatt
