Here she is. This has been in my project since December. I have lost intrest and just dont have the time to finish her up right now.

Specs:

1987 VW GTi DOHC 16v

Engine code PL, was rated at 123hp from the factory.

Has A/C (needs charge) and PS. Kickass manual sunroof! :D

VIN# 1VWDB0171HV040977

Exterior: 5/10

Interior: 8/10

Mechanical: 7/10

:D The Good:
New oil pan gasket
Rebuilt brake booster
New master cylinder
Rebuilt front and rear calipers
Stainless braided front hoses
New rubber hoses in back
New proportioning valve
Many new hard lines
EBC redstuff pads front, regular stuff in the back
Neuspeed crossdrilled front rotors
New solid rear rotors
New front and rear wheel bearings/seals
New inner and outer tie rods
New ball joints
New sway bar endlinks
Polyurethane master bushing kit
New rear axle beam bushings
K&N drop-in
New radiator hoses
New distributor, plugs, wires
FK motorsports 6-way adjustable struts and shocks
Neuspeed springs
Aero race wheels 13"x8" with new sumitomo tires
Jetta gli Front Recaro Seats
New starter will be included / installed shortly.

:( The Bad:

The starter doubles as a motor mount reinforcement. Car lurches when taken out of gear. Its an easy fix either way and it will be on the car in a couple of days. No big deal. :goodjob:

The engine bogs/misses between 1k and 2k rpms. Not totally certain why but there are a couple of missing vacuum hoses that are likely candidates.

20 years worth of body wear. Has a few dents and dings. Two very tiny surface rust spots under passenger rear window.

No headlinder.

Price $2800 firm.
