Car for sale -- not mine

[calimus at techography.net (calimus)]

This was posted on my forums back in October, somehow I missed it, but I've
found that the car is still up for sale, so i'm trying to do a good thing
and help find it a new home.  So, here are all the details.

My '84 needs a new home.

If you want a Scirocco to race, restore or just to drive, consider my 1984.

Many things need attention:

GAUGES -- Speedo/Odo/Fuel gauge don't work (the tach's still alive)
SEATS -- Leather seat bolster worn thru on driver's side; rear seats out of
car, but in good shape; front seats not sliding/adjusting.
DOORS -- Passenger side won't open from outside (new handles $10 on ebay);
interior grab handle pulled through door panel on driver's side (works, but
you have to pull easy)
DASH -- some cracking up by the defrost vents, but pretty good otherwise
TIRES -- two good tires up front, will need two rears

Many other things work well:

ENGINE -- cranks and runs great, even after 165k+ miles
TRANS -- Less than 5k on remanufactured 5-speed and new clutch
FUEL TANK -- removed, cleaned and sealed this year; new in-tank pump
POWER WINDOWS -- driver's side replaced, passenger side a-ok
POWER MIRRORS -- work great
AIR CONDITIONING -- still blows cold


Other stuff:

NO RUST anywhere on the car (aside from some light scratches on the roof);
extremely solid all the way around
NEW CARPET last year
BLACK PAINT with black leather interior; paint isn't showroom shiny, but
would probably buff out nicely
FIVE RIMS -- 8-spoke, thirteen inch VW factory rims
NEW BELTS -- a/c, alternator, water pump; both belts new
NEWER BATTTERY -- last year, as i recall
CURRENT INSPECTION (06/04) -- Virginia is very thorough with inspections,
all lights, signals, horn, CV axles, brakes, etc. are checked
DAILY DRIVER -- this is my daily driver, only selling because new baby
requires something that's not an ongoing project
PERFORMANCE EXHAUST -- 2.25" Techtonics Cat-back with Borla muffler new this
year
2nd OWNER -- I bought her from the original owner in 1989 with 95k miles
OH, YEAH -- big bore throttle body from audi 5000, cheap strut tower brace,
chilton manual, and whatever odds and ends i've collected over the years
will go along with the car


PLEASE HELP TO KEEP ONE MORE SCIROCCO OUT ON THE ROAD. I DON'T WANT TO PART
HER OUT OR SEND HER TO THE JUNK YARD.

SURELY YOU NEED ANOTHER SCIROCCO! OR AT LEAST KNOW SOMEONE WHO NEEDS ONE.
KEEP THE VW LOVE ALIVE!!!!!

Call me, Eric, at 804-467-8271 for more information. I've owned the car for
14 years, so I know everything about it.

Or email to eiseleman@hotmail.com (put SCIROCCO in the subject) and I'll get
back to you.

PRICE = make a (non-insulting) offer

Thanks everyone.
Eric
