rare parts (can be yours!)

no, it's not a get rich quick scheme...

After some discussions with list members, both local and national,
it occurred to me that I have a highly valuable, hard to find Audi
part just sitting in my garage. Unfortunately, I have sold the car
that it goes to ('85 4KQ).

I have a leather seat cover (bottom) which will fit either the driver
or passenger seat of an '85 4KQ. Unfortunately, it is in a color
which is fairly rare. I had the Oceanic Blue paint with the light
grey interior - hence the color is light grey.

The seat cover has about a 1/2" scratch in it. To make a long story
short, I demanded its replacement when my insurance company wouldn't
fix other damage. The cost of the new seat cover was over $900. This
cover has less than 10K butt-miles on it as the incident happened
the first year I had it. The scratch is just that - it doesn't go
through the leather.

There weren't many of these cars in this color scheme, so it is
a long shot. If you need one, it would be nearly impossible to find
one now - it took 6 months to get back in 1985! It doesn't help me,
but it would help someone with an Oceanic Blue 4KQ w/ leather seats.

I think $200 would be fair.
