Water pump on '83 CGT done -- thanks everyone!
Wanted to thank all the people who responded to my quest for information
on the water-pump replacement I undertook this weekend. It points out
something that Mike Arman mentions in another context:

In fact, the existence of an Internet mailing list was, in my mind, a
condition of purchase for the '83 CGT, which I originally borrowed from
a friend. It was a spare car for him, and he had been waffling about
selling it for some time. As I set about correcting minor things I
found on the car due to the extended periods of idleness it had
suffered, I turned more and more to this list for technical advice, and
for references to parts sources (thanks again, Linda @ Carlsen!)
Now, certainly AOA doesn't care about me as the owner of a
sixteen-year-old car. But that sixteen-year-old car has me thinking
about other Audis, up to and including the new A4 Avant that my wife
thinks would be neat.
If I *do* buy an A4, it'll be the direct result of the existence and
quality of this list.
And if AOA doesn't care about that... then VWAG should disband them.
