    Anyones ex VR6 here??

    One of my customers bought a reposessed dark green VR6 from a Canberra auction a couple of months ago. Its got front brake ducts, pod air filter and a short stubbie aerial. I havent taken any pics of it, apart from those mods its just a standard lowered VR6 on standard wheels. I am presently up to my arms in it....


    It also had a cracked thermostat housing, blown headgasket and broken and worn out timing chain guides so the customer is being hit with a large bill. Fortunately the clutch wasnt worn out!
    Need to finish this one up as I have 3 more VWs waiting to have engine removals and rebuilds before I go to the DOVW... Grrr

    6500 if I remember correctly, and that was without rego, auction fee's etc. I'm also pretty sure they were basing the price on what I paid for mine a year ago, but mine ran and had less than a 1/4 of the k's

    Went for $3000-$4000 to my customer, mind you, its gonna cost him a lot to get back to being decent, forgot to mention the damn heater core being bypassed..., A job for late summer I guess...
    Hopefully get it up and running this morning before a yukky Ford Econovan comes in for a cambelt this arvo... (love a break around here! )
