  1. Looks like they sold this Tii-- at least it's on the same car transporter as mine (I bought the Golf E12). I was comfortable buying the E12 from Oldenzaal because it is very original with low mileage, and they had done very little work in preparation for sale. Specifically, they had done no body work or rust repair. I worked with Jan and found him to be very straightforward and forthcoming with many, many pictures, video etc. Major caveat-- I have not received the car yet! So we'll see.
  2. @SydneyTii Did you ever get a 'new' KF pump from Saxon or Lucas? Thanks, Michael
  3. Here’s what it looks like IRL. Looks great on an early car and the weight is just right.
  4. How do you think carbon fiber roof and hood compare to steel in terms of sound? Louder, way louder, quieter?
  5. The 2000c has some cool Stil-Auto 'Diana' wheels worth saving. Otherwise... ?‍♂️
  6. @20Alpina02 Hi, my name is Michael. Who are you?
  7. I have one of the first Alpina performance kit made in the early to mid 60s for the NK cars, and it came with a pair of Tipo 19s. I have some other early Alpina intake manifolds, pre-70s, and they came with Tipo 19s attached.
  8. Man, asking about Esty without using the search feature for "Esty" is likely to get you an ass-chewing from Esty.
  9. Haven't installed it yet, but I'm excited to try this little 4 channel amp from Kicker. Small enough to hide, decent power, and it has a built-in auto DSP. So you plug in a microphone when you first set it up and it automatically optimizes equalization, crossover points, and time alignment to help correct for the crappy speaker placement in an 02. No built-in Bluetooth though. Check out the Kicker 47KEY200.4 WWW.CRUTCHFIELD.COM Compact 4-channel car amplifier with automatic tuning DSP — 50 watts RMS x 4
  10. Set of 4 Octavo 100+ wheels for sale. 5 1/2" x 13, not sure about offset but 2002 fitment. Good condition, centers painted black, no caps. Minor scuffing on edges. Not interested in shipping.
  11. Just a head’s up— some of these disable the radio entirely when plugged in. Bluetooth only unless you physically unplug it from the back— which is not fun. If you don’t care about radio, no biggie, but there are some made that allow both functions.
  12. Ryan, any thought of SOC making regular-- non-flared-- fenders? Wheels turned out perfect!
  13. ADS crossovers! Does it have ADS speakers to match?
  14. Thanks for posting the guidelines, very interesting-- and I agree, a very small deduction for new paint, especially if engine bay, trunk, door jambs and hidden parts are considered in the overall percentage. Of course, I'm waiting to win the 'Not Touched By Human Hands in 40 Years' Class--
  15. I also don't understand the Preservation Class. Not to take anything away from any of the cars, but surely if a car has had a complete repaint, it's closer to a restoration than a preservation?
  16. You'd know better than I! I'm not super excited about shipping to Australia but if I can just drop them off at Fedex or UPS then I might consider it. Are these that rare in Australia?
  17. Larger knobs with pictographs were used in Europe were they not? Euro dashes do not have the stencils on the dash itself labeling the knob functions. I’m also having my dash redone— without the USA only seatbelt warning pod— and had to make the decision whether to go ‘full Euro’ and omit the stencils as well.
  18. That looks like a Ferris Bueller situation about to happen.
