  1. Looking for a tested/working fuel sender for my '72 2002. Needs to be the early version which is shorter than the '73 and later models. I can look up the part number if you have one out of the car. Please pm if you have one. Thanks.

    Location: Modesto, CA<br />

  2. Didn't know where to put this...

    There are 2- 320i's (320i not 320is) in the Stockton Pick N Pull off hwy 99. One '83, one '81. '83 missing front hubs, '81 still has em. Both radiators gone. '81 still has a 3.91 open diff, '81 driveshaft still there. I pulled the 245/5 from the '81 after first pulling the 240/5. The '83 was there first so I was going to use that gear box until the '81 came in. The 240/5 is in the trunk of the '81 with the return tag still on it as of today.

    Both motors still there, 1.8 heads, not sure of mileage on '83. Odometer on '81 reads 270k+. I believe AC components are still in both. Seat photos from '81 below if you are looking to use. I think they fit our seat rails but I'm not sure.'

  3. After multiple attempts to purchase items from Denvertii, twice sending payments via PayPal to be ignored 30

    Days later when I've asked for a definitive ship date (no worries, PayPal returns the funds), I give up. Nice photos, great conversation, no follow through to consummate the sale by shipping the items paid for and promised. Sellers: If you're selling something and you've been paid for it, please remember to complete the sale by SHIPPING THE F'N PRODUCT!!!

  5. I traded the Tahoe in May 2013. The CL ad wasn't very descriptive but when I saw the photos I had to have the Golf Yellow. The owner didn't mention "sunroof" which was a bonus for me living in the Central Valley here in Cali. We swapped titles because he needed a family sized vehicle (read: 5 people) and the 2002 sat in his garage for no particular reason. Don't think he was an enthusiast. On the drive home from Reno NV (young son rode along to see why his dad was so hot to run to Reno on a hot day just to look at a car) we lost the center resonator due to rust and drove the last 150 miles with the front windows down, sunroof and wings open, listening to the tank sound resonating beneath the floor.

    Tahoe value was roughly $4500, 4X4, 167k miles, 2nd tranny, various repairs needed though none were going to cause a major breakdown.

    Golf Yellow has rust @ front turn signals, front valence, rear fenders behind wheel. No shock tower or floor board rust. Car was kept mostly in Nevada after purchase Dec 21, 1971. One trip to Europe (based on records) via PO military service. 61,200 on odometer when I picked it up. Replaced exhaust (resonator back), refreshed carb (32/36), refreshed 4 speed rear seals, guibo, driveshaft balance and ujoints replaced, swapped euro turns, momo steering wheel, bottlecaps, HD rear shocks, IE stage 2 springs, upper strut bar, removed front spacers, new motor mounts etc. So far these basics have cost me less than  $2k. Slowly gathering parts and info for dual 40 Dellortos, cam change, head work, high compression pistons, 5 speed etc. Suspension bushings all need replacement along with ball joints, steering box, pedal box, clutch master/slave etc.
