Default Maybe parting my '82

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/47303/82-4.jpg"></center><p>Can't find anyone to take my somewhat dead '82 as-is, and I don't want to spend the $185 to buy a new fuse block, so I'm thinking of parting it out. Shame, as it's got good potential to someone that wants to mess with the elecrical issues.
So, anyone need parts enough to make it worth my time to part it out, then have the hulk hauled off? I have posted a few pictures in "Picture Poster".
I also will be getting rid of my '84 parts car.

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/47303/seat.jpg"></center><p>Has this style seats. they're in pretty good shape. Drivers seat has some wear spots where you get in and out, but no rips or tears. I have a couple floor mats with the Audi logo, but they're for the back seat floor. (Not sure how I ended up with them.)

Default $185 for a fuse box?

The worldpac distributors have the early fuseboxes for about $100, and I got mine at my local foreign shop for $60 because they had one on the shelf that had been sitting there for years.

$100 is still a lot of money, but maybe that much will help to keep one more older audi on the road.

A few worldpac distributors:

www.bimmerparts.com
www.thepartsbin.com
www.carmadillo.com (I think)

No affiliation, etc.

Default Re: $185 for a fuse box?

That's a good news/bad news thing. Now I have to decide all over again if I want to keep working on this thing.
Drat!
I'm not sure I even want to mess with it anymore. Have had it for almost 10 years and have gotten my monies' worth out of it. It does need a few other prob's fixed. A CV joint...again. And it wears out right front tires fast. I've replaced just about everything, and had an alignment done, but still wears out that tire for some reason. I'm just getting tired of working on it.

Default If you don't mind shipping....I'd like to deal with you on...

the price for the bumpers (actually just the chrome strips), the grill and the headlight trim.

What are the wheels?

Default Ok. response looks good.

I think I'll do this. Gonna be kind of a PIA to strip, package and ship stuff, but I'd rather do this than let a scrap yard get it for nothing. you'll have to be patient. I'm leaving next week for a week and a half of vacation, but in the meantime you can email me directly with what you want. (and a price offer I guess) I already have the seats spoken for.
Prices will have to be worked out. I really don't have a clue what stuff is really worth. So I guess make me an offer. If it sounds reasonable, we'll go with it. I'm not out to make a fortune off this thing. I do also still have the spoiler I bought off ebay for something like $125+shipping that I never installed. It's the later style ('83 and later). I'd like to break even on that if I can. it's in fair shape. No chunks missing.
I'm also selling my '83 to a young fella at work, so this will be my exodus from Audi land. Other priorities are kind of forcing this. but I still love these cars, and may get another sometime down the road.
