For sale feeler: 99.5 Jetta GLS VR6. 152k miles - 01-19-2010, 03:55 PM

Just putting this out there. I was originally going to sell it as is, with chain noise, but I'm now fixing it.

Right now, there are no pictures, but there will be when we're done.

Here are some details:
-Dark blue
-152k miles
-some rust. Left fender has a dent, and the RF door looks like it was either painted or replaced, since the rust issues on that door only are really nasty
- 5-spd
- very recent coil replacement
- very recent Optima yellow battery

Work being done before selling:
-plugs and wires
-full chain and tensioner replacement
-complete clutch kit
-rear main seal
-all trans seals
-synthetic oil change
-emergency brake cables
-all ground connections decorroded

So far, the retail invoice price on the work being performed is over $2800.

If I don't end up doing a lot of other work to it, that's the price I'm going to sell it for.

Again, no pictures yet, but if you're interested and want to take a look at it, please feel free to come by.

Car runs well now. One of the upper rails cracked. All rails, tensioners and chains replaced. New rear main seal, new clutch set.

Looking to get some of the body work done. Going to do a little cleanup today and get some pics up.

Here are a few so far. So far, the only thing I've cleaned on it is the engine, and it will be going through a full detail once all of the mechanical stuff is sorted out. I'm also still considering having the body work done. I've highlighted the areas that need to be dealt with.

Front bumper needs paint and clear. LF fender to be straightened and painted. RF door replaced, and a couple of other small surface rust sports. The interior should clean up very well.

I've got the big 3M kit, and it will be done before the next set of pictures.

And who knows, maybe when I'm done I'll like it a lot and just keep it.

So, here's an update on "project VR6"

It's getting new brake cables and a starter.

I'm also having the body and paint work done, which includes:
- front bumper repainted and cleared
- LF fender repaired
- RF door replaced or repaired
- 2 other rust spots dealt with
- hood painted and cleared (couple of clear coat blemishes)

The car will be ready to roll in a few weeks. I will have detailed pictures when everything is done.

Now I'm not sure if I'm going to sell it.

And it's mostly done now
