Alex,

"As an aside, is it true that '85 is year they went to galvanizing the
shells?" No 

As far as I know, no ur-q had any galvanizing, through the RR.

cheers, Mike

This car has been posted on a number of occasions on audifans as a
regular classified.  What I find amusing is that the car is described as
having never been 'wrecked.'  I suppose this is technically true if the
title is clean.  The pictures show very clearly that the passenger
rocker panel and front fender have met up with a foreign object...

All in, it looks like a pretty good deal, but I'd definitely want to
inspect it firsthand before placing a bid.

As an aside, is it true that '85 is year they went to galvanizing the
shells?

Cheers,

Alex Stickler
