quattro Digest, Vol 23, Issue 11

[Mark R]

Thanks again! I appreciate any paperwork you have for her! I'll try to get 
the hood open this weekend and start cleaning it up to assess what's needed. 
At least it's stored inside now. =)
Anyone have tricks to opening up a 4KQ hood with a broken latch or cable? 
And while I'm at it, anybody have used parts they'd like to donate (cheap) 
to the ressurection? I might need a door or two as there is corrosion right 
around some door handles. Extra cheap rims? Suspension parts? (lots of rust 
on those from sitting outside).
 Once I assess how much $$$ is needed and the title comes, I plan on having 
a fun 4KQ running shortly! Did someone mention a new toy winter driving 
school and/or ice racing? =)
 My girlfriend has been driving my '00 S4 daily. I showed up with the 
not-so-great-looking, not-running 4KQ on the trailer. She scoffed and said 
"I'm never driving THAT thing." I laughed, and said "Plan on having a BLAST 
in this at winter driving school this year." Yes, the modern Quattro grips 
far better, but I *always* clamor to borrow the keys of 4KQs owned by 
students or fellow instructors. So easy to throttle steer on ice. 
 Best to all,
Mark Rosenkrantz
