Old school audis

[Golf Loon]

Nice to see that there are some of these old girls left. Good work saving it from the wrecker.

There are a couple of bits, like the thrust washer in the end of the crank that would fit all passats from 1974-2004. Yours is indeed the start of the story.

The guy who owned Lukes Passat before him has an Audi Grille for your car with the rings on it. I`ll find out if he will sell it for you.

thought since i was gaining a little interest with my automobile i thought i would share with you the complexities i had from the start

the original sunroof the previous owner put it, leaked like no 2morrow!



after i got fed up with the water dropping onto my head and i had to drive to one side of my seat i descided enough was enough and to get this problem sorted! went though all the options of filling the hole, replacing it with similar pop top sunroofs (similar leaking problems would then occur later) desided to go looking at steel sunroofs out of E30's etc etc but ended up been rusted to big, wrong curve etc etc,

ended up with a sunroof out of a Honda fits like a glove! heres the pic

Will be more than happy to chat with you mate i started my apprenticeship in 88 and there was plenty around. I owned a 5cyl Audi 90 and a string of others including an Audi Coupe, UR Quattro which i still cry thinking about. Thats now a collector YEah around 14 years with Audi bro, welcome mate!

that wasn't that black 82' UR i seen on ebay a while ago for 20K was it?

my sunroof jobs a real blast, did that all myself with the tiniest bit of help from my dad

Mate i emigrated from Scotland it was a 1990 20v jobbie 300bhp! was a great thing. I remember when i did sunroofs mate, the guy that showed me what to do cut a roof too big and the glass fell through hehehe never forget that one . Good thing for oversize glass hey!!!!

[Nick_80]

i'll have to get more pics, we actually formed the roof, so it was a factory mounted item apposed to cutting a hole and clamping a sunroof to the hole


but yer nice

Your Audi is Gold!

Audi's and VW's looked the same:

Audi Fox = VW Passat

Audi 50 = VW Polo/Golf

Great car and good luck with it!
