Yes, it's a V8 chassis and actually a pretty decent Avant graft... It is the
yellow one off of ebay a couple of months ago. Quite different from my 20v
Avant or the sedan. I picked it up in Pittsburgh and it literally flew down
I-70 to Colorado. The suspension is tired, the rack leaks just a tad, and
the bomb is on its last legs... The motor is around 100k and fresh timing
belt, water pump, etc... The tranny was new 14k ago. Fresh rotors and pads
all around. All the electricals work. A few dash lights out. A/C is nice and
cold. Was always serviced by a top notch Audi shop in Pittsburgh. The family
was clearing out their collection - early Bugatti, Lambo, V12 Lincoln,
Alfa's, Mercedes, Porsche - about twenty five cars in all. The father is
getting up in years and the rest of the family just has no interest.
If Carter's springs would fit I'd like to relieve him of them. If that's the
case please let me know.
Cheers,
Bryan
