I've heard of aussie mk2's in mint condition going for a few grand at auction from vw parts guys in Adelaide. Trouble is you have to watch ALL the auctions every week for a year ATLEAST before you find one. Certainly I've never seen a mk2 at any auctions listings I've looked at...

Sell the engine + g/box from this one and it would have only cost a few grand. As far as trades in at car yards go though my wife has a nice car (trade in haha) we paid 2400 for and insured it for book value of $8K last year
