1990 Audi V8 Quattro - Beautiful Car for Repair or Parts
Description
I put about 45,000 miles on the car before parking it (total mileage about 145,000).The car is in cosmetically very nice shape.It was a great car: good handling, powerful, well equipped.
There were no known mechanical issues when parked a couple years ago.Car has been started recently - the engine runs well.However, the brakes must be redone to be driveable as there is now a hole in the line to the left rear wheel.My wife says it is time for it to go!
Following is a description of important points. I describe the car as best I can.
Good!
- Body very straight and great shape. Only particularly noticeable corrosion at right front fender trim and at edge above rear bumper chrome strip - see photos. Minor damage at jacking points from prior owner but jacking points are solid.
- Water pump in last 5-10K miles; timing belt last 35-40K miles
- Bosch ignition wires in last 10K miles
- Front aero pan is intact

- Car comes with extra set of worn UFO brake "rotors" and replacement antenna
- Original key sets
Imperfections and work needed
