I got a car!

[PGK]

more or less....the parts are there. call it .75 car.







Brakes don't work, it overheats, it rattles, steering has a squeal, interior is shit, but it was $200.

[ScottyB]

i'm.....jealous!

I-5 audi's are sweet in an old school way. and for 200 bucks, that's a steal and a half. any plans for it, or drive it stock and just beat on it?

[Jeff]

with all due respect...get your $200 back! I have bought some trashy cars in my day...but nothing quite that bad off...and GERMAN.

EDIT- I am hating in good fun man, glad to see you got a car. Rock it til' the wheels... and everything else...fall off.

[HAULN-SS]

haha...dude, you have about | | that much room to talk

[Jeff]

In most cases...you have less then that.

[HAULN-SS]

That's not what she said.

haha whatever man.. dont listen to him..Id pimp that any day over an omni.. and cant beat it for 200 bucks. I had a 84 4000s quattro. cant see the back very well in the pic to see if it has the quattro spoiler ( is it quattro ???)

[ScottyB]

blasphemer! do you understand this car can trace its lineage to the original quattro coupe? THE UR QUATTRO?! i will smite you!!!

Edit- I'm not gonna sit here and rip on anyones car, if he is happy with it thats all that matters.

Oh and Blair...blow me dude. A Boosted Omni in good shape is a hell of a fun car...as I'm sure one of these would be in decent shape.

Its this car turbocharged? Auto or 5-speed? Does all the electrical stuff work?

[PGK]

N/A 5 cyl, 5 speed + quattro, most everything functions minus the brakes. one of the reverse lights is out, it ticks, and it overheats. The brakes work only in the last 3/4" of pedal travel, so that is job #1. After I register it.

[Jeff]

If you need any help workin on it, I'm more then happy to help. What size/type of engine is in it?

[PGK]

2.2 I5. Working on it will be an issue I'm sure....it's parked at Andrew's right now with about-to-expire plates from his old Prius. I live in an apartment and work space is nonexistent, so getting it driveable is the order of the day. Sourcing parts may be difficult, and I'm sure dragging my tools home from work is goign to be a PITA, but it'll happen.

[ScottyB]

go to the forums on <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.motorgeek.com">www.motorgeek.com</a><!-- w -->, there is a huge contingent of old school audi guys there. most everyone has an audi that is from the 80's and they'll tell you where to go.

some kick ass projects on those forums too. a twin turbo V8 coupe quattro, a couple V8 quattro sedans, and a smattering of 500+ horse 1-5 quattro sedans

[HAULN-SS]

I think i've seen that TT V8 - is it the red one? If so, I saw a vid of that guy just lighting up the tires, rocking the throttle back and forth

Thats kind of the point, dipshit, since Jeff buys a lot of old busted ass cars.

[BLAIR]

I dont doubt that.. do you have a boosted omni in good shape? if so Id love to see it. All im saying is you trashed his car right away, i dont know if you even know him, i dont? Alot of people would very strongly question your choice of cars too. I deff. do but I wont and dont make it obvious untill you trash someone elses choice in an automobile. End of story and No.. i wont blow you, dont you have a GF for that?

PGK- dont know where you are located but you should be able to find these in junkyards fairly easy. brake parts and other things you need shouldnt be to hard to find. If you are in the burg there are 3 local yards that I have seen old 4000's at

I got my 1984 4000s ( older body style with air locking front and rear diffs) its was SICK. had 16 inch BBS wheels and bilstein-h and r suspension, from a dealer i worked at for 400 bucks. I beat the living crap out of that car on and offroad. Never changed the oil or anything. shifted at rev limited all day long. I couldnt break the car as hard as i tried. Youll deff like this car. The inline5 motor sounds so badass and unique

[PGK]

Junkyards are good....but I'm not in the 'burg. I'm new to old audi's, are there any popular brake swaps/aftermarket setups that are dirt cheap?

[Jeff]

Point<---------------------------------------------->You

I know my Omni is a chunk of smelly Shit. Trust me. But before I tore it apart it ran ok (a little knock :wink: ) and it had a damn good paint job and a 100% interior. Paid $300 American for it. If you think I was seriously shit talking the fellow then you missed that point to. Just a little friendly heckling. No one defends me when I get heckled for my trashy $50 Dodges. But that is neither here nor there. sub $500 cars FTW! :wink:

[Hunter]

That is a kick ass deal!

Flush the cooling system, change the brake fluid and then beat the piss out of it!

[CaptainHenreh]

w00t! I'm glad someone bought that!
