$750 95 TSi AWD Panda (continued)

[HaveBlue83]

i have since bought another 6-bolt motor for $300, COMPLETE, out if a junkyard...too good to pass up. It (once again) was bought for the summit, but I might just throw it in the talon for a little while and run it. I need a LOT of the 6-bolt acc and timing belt side items. I'm running out of steam. . I grabbed an oil pan, waterpipe and misc little things off my buddies crap motor for free. Like I said...SLOWLY getting there.

The Trans/xfer case assy is supposed to be shipped out this week to Mich to get some shimming, new synchro's, some EVO gears for closer ratio feel. Done to hold up 500WTQ. A buddy is hooking me UPPPPP.

Car is still a shell, just waiting for me to stop being a girl and changing my mind!!!! Picts when I can to make this more interesting.

UPDATE:

car is a shell, apart and in storage in a garage. the 6-bolt is going to my Summit. HX-35 and exhaust is sold. Car is on infinite hold, not to be sold at this point. I moved to VA and I had to break my lease so all extra Panda funds are gone.


one day I shall return!

Sad face.

 

[fredom dsm]

This is really sad! Honestly!
Such a beauty torn apart, best wishes to you!

sorry to hear your troubles.. car was looking good

 

[HaveBlue83]

Thats why I took a bazillion pics of Panda the last 2 years. I learned to snap pics to capture how bad ass she looked .

One day if I'm lucky and get enough cash I will redo her. All i need is a 16g 7 bolt setup and a trans job to get her rolling again

 

[Stmguy42]

like how you did the bumper cut out. i need to do the same.

 

[97ClipseGSX]

Car looks sic man. I wasnt sure about the bumper cutting. But it looks awesome. Kinda makes me have some ideas for mine .

 

[HaveBlue83]

CAR IS SOLD

it was sold as a shell with no interior for $500 to some nice guys in MD. it now has a black engine bay and a tan interior. will remain a stock 7 bolt car.

Panda lives on!

Sad you sold the panda, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Just glad she didnt go the way of the crusher.

Sorry to hear that , I've been subd to this thread since it first came out.
It was a good looking dsm.

Sad to hear that Your car has been one of the inspirations for my panda build, but glad we still have all the pictures to look at! Here's to hoping the new owners take care of her.

 

[HaveBlue83]

I still have my front bumper and grille

Yeah its good to see her continue on. I get updates and pics of the progress

I took pics so when she was gone i'd remember her!

Ps this car was sold to the next owner who had it about 6 months and ran it on the wheels and tires i bought the carwith in 2010. The buyer was informed NOT to drive on thwm and they did anyways. They had a blowout on the highway and lost control. The car spun around on a guardrail amd it hit the dr side all down the side and rear 1/4.

As far as I know the car was totaled and is parted out.

Sorry all. Panda is gone.
