Last pic shows (Coen Donkers) SQ recreation with the correct A-pillar, unlike the project that is up for sale.

The ad states the 'correct' screen angle is also there, ready to fit. Seems a little out of sequence, if the rest of the car is prepped. What work is required to fit the parts for the correct rake?
I also wonder why it's for sale, with so much effort to get to that position. Time/funds aside, I cant help thinking its a can of worms.

So I'm assuming that nothing has been done other than the strip n dip or has it already been shortened ( can't tell on my phone?)

If yes why the incorrect window rake ?

Has some nice feedback - "Absolute Rip Off Merchant - Scum Of The Earth"

I'm guessing it's been started purely as an earner, then he has realised that you need an insane love of pissung money down the toilet to end up with a good car.

Nice Talbot though!

Has been shortened, yep. Incorrect rake because he probably didn't realise that before it was started. A true audi fanatic would know that it's not a 'torsion gearbox' in these things..

The guy selling it is a chap called Jay Small.

He should settle his bill for having the car dipped before selling it on!

Glad I posted this... love CA, our combined knowledge reveals most truths from the scum that is out there. If ur gonna do shit like this then u pay up front, even partially, based on a defined spec

Gut feel £12K was taking the PeeOneFiveFive. Between us, CA just confirmed that.

Question tho'but, what would be a good price to assuming visual inspection sez welds are good, etc?

If'n all is ok, it's bit of blank canvas. Something that would tempt us all?
