Body wk / intercool.support / 5kTQ
Should anyone need body work, go to someone who knows these cars!!! I almost
took some bad advice from a well meaning aquaintance/body shop owner.
I thought I had assembled all the parts needed for my front end body work (87
5kcsTQ). Before turning it all over to the guy above (next door to my
office), I thought I'd go talk to a body guy that I had good past encounters
with. Turns out he's working on 3 Audis now. My conversation with him led to
the opening statement above. Anyway, I'm going to need to replace the frame
piece that goes across the front, that holds the intercooler and hood
latches. Anyone with experience removing this piece? My questions:
1) Is it all bolted, no welds?
2) Care to give a step by step?
3) Any idea if other year pieces are a match?
4) Anyone have one from a partsmobile? Seen one in boneyard - S. NY state/ CT
/ N. NJ
Trying to do as much labor as possible myself.
Thanks,
