I bought one that had been converted from a 20V Avant. The lowered 
suspension wouldn't pass NH inspection (at least to the non-Audi shop I 
took it to), and it needed more work that I could give it, so I sold it 
(I think to Ron Wainwright in MA).

Track that one down, and you're 90% there. Swap out the 5-speed for an 
automatic, swap out the hood and headlights, and you should be on the 
road (until you find all the niggling little bits that need fixing).

And kudos to Brandon for keeping another one on the road.
