Folks, My local dismantler I buy all my parts from for my projects has this car he bought with a rebuilt title that he is trying to see before he dismantles...It might be a good project for you "roller" guys to harvest and sell the rest of the parts.I think the car was in better shape then he expected since he almost always dismantles. He is an honest guy and even warrantees his parts (not sure about the car), I have no connection other that we have become friends because of the business I do with him. He is Norspec Dismantling on Ebay I think. I would consider it myself but I have my eye on another good deal on a 996. https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/c...605652472.html

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Would make a great track car project.

It's either a great deal, or a pig in a poke. If the buyer can do an oil and filter check, and maybe remove the sump plate - then it looks like a good deal. Everything else is fixable to a greater or lesser extent(barring weird engine noise).
Pretty temping car. I saw that on CL the other day and figured that's what this thread was about when I saw the title . Did he give you any background information on it?
What wheels are those?
Probably not that important, but I�ve purchased many items from from Norspec Dismantling on eBay and they have been good to work with.

They're a generic Chinese wheel. You can find them all over Ebay or at your local Discount Tire. The most common brand you'll see them under is Victor Equipment.
Funny I remember seeing this car for sale by the owner in Bellingham for 15k I believe not that long ago.
checking out the ad, pic #9.. so I guess that green foam dried up seal blowing out of the vents is a common thing? all of it has got to be gone out of mine soon... I hope

It's really common in pretty much anything built by a VW subsidiary in the 90s-early 2000s.
