  • Jimmymac in deep????

    Yeah i think i might be in too deep here what ya reckon???




    After extensive checks the rails are gone might abandon ship. I am using this vehicle as a donor for the gearbox ( Auto fault previously posted) and was thinking about making this a car again too. Rails are round and bags are out.
    Keep you posted if i have a brainwave.
    Cheers

    OUCH!

    Someone was obviously driving it a little too quickly. Not you, was it Jimmy?

              Anyone got a front cut????? Rad support complete then i might think about it??????? Bags are out too. Bloody shame has been a good thing. AH forgot to mention Autobox ( as it is being robbed from this to fix another).
              Yeah rails are bad OS has a kink in it too, but no suspension set back.
              Just discovered this morning that the sump is cracked too( alloy welders out there)

                Yeah just on Jarreds comment - may consider break so it has V6 2.6 and nice leather trim and of course all the brakes.

                      Just an update on the sad Audi. The engine and transmission comes out this weekend so i can transplant the box into another vehicle . I will then have better picture on how nasty the rails are. I might hav a source for a front cut!!! Any repair is easier when the engine is out so i might have a better chance at getting a decent quote to fix. This might not be of interest to some, but i feel the need as this is an Audi section after all and deserves its place.
