Either give me a loan to go get it, or you hop on your horse and go get it. NOW.

I won't have that kind of cash til middle of march. All yours, sir.

The rear suspension from those is worth $$$ for people doing syncro conversions on mk2 vws. An audi a8 v8 bolts right in too. Also, the vw parts outlet lists brand new trannys for the 82-84 ones for $299.

Is it just me or is Quantum Turbo just about the best car name ever?

I think you just found the donor car for that 5cyl 20v turbo 200 engine. Hot damn that would be a sweet car.

For a daily driven, 20 year old, Ohio car, that thing is immaculate.

My teammate bought it for $1900. I'm one of the drivers on Chicken and Waffles that won the 24hr LeMons American Irony IoE trophy in the Quantum Syncro. One of our other drivers bought this blue turbo from Cincy, it now lives in Ann Arbor, MI.
