Picked up an 84 or 85 S model today. No engine (it is in the trunk), S4 transmission, S4 seats, and completely gutted. Don't have any pictures of it TODAY... By the time I got to the car it was dark, and my camera phone wouldn't get the pictures up. I will get some tomorrow though.

When I got in the car, the PO forgot to leave the keys... and I have to load it up on a trailer tomorrow, so my friend Andre and I ended up busting the ignition. Guess what I used? A flat head and a 13b rotor . No big deal, I will have it started with a push button.

And true to my word...:

I will make this my rally RX.

Nothing that I know of

But they do come with some sweet 4x110 5 spoke rims I may be selling. I think they are made by a company called Eagle?

Can't open the hood, for some reason the hood wont open. Engine bay is stripped, no engine. Just the S4 trans in it for now.

It is the perfect rally car

i agree, if the car is already that far gone, might as well use it rather than see it get scrapped.

If he still has it next month or so I am grabbing it It will be the 2nd FB for our museum here. And I will either rally it or use it for the 24 hr of lemons( What I got the other FB for..for 500 bones running well)

Again, Damn you Stu!!
