Derracuda's 83' YOU ARE QUATTRO!!!!

derracuda · Post by **derracuda** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 4:38 pm

hey guys!!!! you all are gonna hate me, a few already do cause i told them earlier what i'm got. a 1983 URQ, gobi beige metallic (thanks richard for clarification

), 206k on it, new brakes, SS braided lines, rebuilt engine, everything in the car, nothing seems to be missing. i also got a spare head with solid lifters, starter, exhaust manifold, and 4 15x7.5BBS wheels

i haven't decided 100% which direction this thing will take, but likely 20vt. it's gonna need a full paint job first though. so i might be tearing into this thing soon for that

and now for pics!

we got a peeker....

there she is in all her faded glory

and here's some small details. man...no rust *wipes brow*

interior is there but tired, not unexpected for the miles on it

dang.....

i'm blown away guys, completely blown away

oh, and i picked it up for $1500

Nice buy Derek. Check out smokin10v-urq on Audiworld. His picture poster shows his paint job and stuff he's been doing to his urq. TT interior, custom paint job. etc.

thanks guys

i'm walkin on air here. i defenitely won't be keeping that color. it's nasty, no matter how original it is

i'll pick something cool for the redo and it'll look sharp

i'm gonna work on getting it running tonight and throw the BBS's on and take some more pics of the engine bay and trunk and what not for ya'll

How's the rust by the front strut mounts under the fenders?

derracuda · Post by **derracuda** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 5:03 pm

rust?????

i can't find any so far, but it'll be getting a full steam clean in the near future and that will reveal a lot of stuff (hopefully not though). there's no cancer around the windows anywhere, the floor is solid everwhere underneath, the wheel wells are clean, , there's no rust in the bottoms of the doors or trunk or anywhere under the hood, so i think it's looking pretty solid. perfect candidate for a project car

Lucky!

BTW that color isn't too bad with the right wheels...

Nice find. Is that the ABT gauge extension?

I will own a Urq someday.

The combination of the 3mph bumpers, those headlights and that color leaves quite an impression on us poor Europeans

But damn what a catch!

Nice find man,

trust me it's all about the rust on those cars. looks really good, I like the rare gauge extension. It's getting harder and harder to find cars unmolested like that in North America. The prices in Europe are starting to climb for urq's.

Cheers,

Craig Cook.
