You may have seen in my previous post http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=476169 that my B4V TDI was involved in a collision last weekend. I am anticipating that the car will be considered totaled by the other persons insurance company. I have not yet had that conversation with them nor have I asked about purchasing the car back from them and for how much.
Before I have that conversation, I want to know if there is anybody that would like the entire car (currently located in tow yard in Charleston, SC).
I had a much more knowledgeable TDIClub member take a look at the car (at the tow lot) and his opinion was that the engine and transmission is likely ok (other than the externals that got crushed in the collision). I've pretty much made up my mind that I will not be trying to rebuild my car because I honestly don't have the time or space to do it (especially since I am moving in a few months). There are a lot of great parts on this car that I think would be valuable to other B4's or as a potential conversion project. Parts include:
-Dieselgeek short shifter
-Evolution metal skid pan
-14" polished LaCastellet wheels with nearly new Michelins
-sunroof
-other body parts
-headlight switch for fog lights
-engine
-Transmission
-Dashboard
-Bilstein HD struts all around
-others that I can't really think of now.
So if you are interested in the entire thing and can get it, please PM me so I can figure out what kind of conversation I need to have with the insurance company.
Here are some pictures to have an understanding of what we are dealing with.
