Below is the e-mail he returned to me, proving he is butchering 
perfectly good cars.  For the love of Audis everywhere, please do not 
support this anti-Audifan!

My email to him......
Hi Joe,
Interested in what is left of the car.  Was it
running when you parted it?  Body Panels in good
shape?  Glass?  Wheels?  What's left of it?  Thanks

His reply.....
I have basically everything you just listed and a ton
more. I have only just begun to part her out last
week.

The car runs great.  I'am out to make money off a
small investment.   The car is worth more in parts
than in whole.

Let me know what you want.  I could make up some
package deals for you.   Give me a call.

Regards,

This is his idea of making money.....butchering perfectly good cars that 
some real audifan would love and respect.  Do what you need to make your 
beloved Audi as you want it, but please don't support this guy.  Thanks all.

My patience with marketplace messages such as this one is reaching the 
limit.  Kinda sounds like a local VW "freak" (in every sense of the 
word) who was appalled to find that our local VW boneyard wasn't keeping 
all that old cr*p under a roof!  Get real, Jim!  You want to preserve 
what you consider to be "good" cars, why don't you put your money where 
your mouth is?  You could have bought that car before Joe did.  In fact, 
why not buy 'em all!  I know my wife and my business partner would BOTH 
be absolutely ECSTATIC to have you pick up the various good runners I 
have here.  In fact, you buy 'em all and I'll treat you to a real Santa 
Maria Style dinner before you leave with your 2 or 3 truckloads of cars. 
  Seen "Sideways"?  I'll take you to The Hitching Post"!  Bring cash, as 
I don't take Western Union money orders, cashiers checks,  or out of 
state checks, and I won't send you the difference.  I will, however, in 
the interests of preservation, make you a small package discount on the 
lot.   John Larson
