    I'll help if you needed it. Given i did the timing chain on mine with only a diy. Nothing's too hard too do. I work for cheap aswell

    Just not the experience or skill to do a head and timing chain

    I am thinking $7k for car $2k for shipping and I then have roughly $5k and saving slowly for the rest..........

    Just wanna throw my 2 cents in.....

    If this is the Black Mk4 R32 in QLD then its a BIG BIG Job!

    I considered it but a rebuild on an R32 engine isnt cheap, ive seen quotes of up to 25k! If the timing chain has gone then you need pistons, valves and the rest!!

    PLUS the body is in such a bad condition! Cracked Windscreen, cheap aftermarket rims, damage to front left quarter!

    Personally its not worth it! maybe better off if you wrecked it for parts!
