5KTQW on e-bay



Good morning. I looked at this fine ride last Saturday. Paint tired,
headliner wiped, he says from leaving the roof open once in bad weather. 
Interior is pretty good for the mileage. Extensive rewiring in harness
due to fan meltdown. Drives well enough. I took it a couple of miles. No
bad noises, trans feels and sounds good. He says he had the engine
professionally redone at 187K, and that the maintenance has been done by
an Audi specialist in Atlanta. BTW, the fan wiring's a hack job. I
located a used harness locally for $125 if I pull it. Stereo wiring is
trashed where the radio has been removed. Car has Cal plates, and a
current Georgia inspection sticker. The guy's a wind surfer and bought
an air cooled (now THERE'S a misnomer!) for more room. He's got it in
the local auto Trader for 2K, probably not a bad deal. I'd have gone for
it had it been 1.5K and any color other than pearl. Think I might just
bid on it anyway.
Should anyone be interested, it's local and I could go see it again.
