[Vwdiesel] FS: 1986 1.6NA Diesel

[Jonathan Royce]

For Sale

1986 Jetta 1.6NA diesel
- brown
- 270,000+ miles (odometer stopped at ~233,000--miles estimated by tanks of
fuel since then)
- 1 year old KYB gas struts (rear)
- 6 month old OEM rear springs
- 2 year old OEM front struts and springs
- 1 year old ATE disc brakes (front)
- 1.5 month old shift linkage (all new)
- 4 month old Bosch 65 amp alternator
- 4 month old AutoZone battery
- engine runs great--regular oil changes and maintenance

Problems:
5th gear is gone (you can shift into 5th and nothing happens--the engine
just spins). E-brake cable (left) is broken. Lower alternator bolt is broken
off in alternator. Alternator is jerry-rigged with a shorter belt and a
bolt/nut assembly through the second (nonthreaded) hole on the alternator.

The interior is in great shape. Car is being sold with a Blaupunkt CM147
AM/FM cassette deck. If I knew how to rebuild a tranny, I'd be keeping her,
but I have neither the expertise to do so, nor the time to learn, so I'm
replacing her with a 2001 TDI. I'd like for this car to go to a good home,
so I'm posting it here until Sunday, when I'll list her in the paper.

Location: Merrimack, NH
Asking price: $700 OBO (make an offer, b/c it's hard to know what a car like
this is worth)

If you want to call: 603-429-4303. No later than 10 PM EST, please.
