Hello - Here is a list of everything that was replaced or repaired....
Block was honed and machined to 30 over. All new engine internals, ncl. pistons, ings, od bearings, tc... The heads are pretty much impossible to rebuild correctly, o I purchased a brand new cylinder head from The Parts place, s well as a brand new injection pump, ew injectors, ew injector lines, ew glow plugs. Actually all of the parts were purchased from The Parts Place - they are a VW supplier in Michigan. The vacuum pump was rebuilt, ew water pump & thermostat, ew radiator, ll new hoses, ebuilt alternator, ew starter, new clutch, ressure plate, hrow out bearing, ebuilt shifter linkage, new E-brake cables, ew CV joints, ew rear shocks, rand new steering rack, ood latch cable, hrottle cable, ew exhaust, bumper cap ends, n original rear bumper, n original rear sliding glass was added, amp; GTI wheels with new tires. As you can see, or the most part all of the hard stuff has been done. These thing get around 50 miles to the gallon. Truck has approx. 145k miles on it, speed manual. I am probably forgetting something but pretty much everything mechanical was re-done.
Now for the bad - or what still needs to be done. The dash & seats are cracked, hus the reason for the covers. The headliner is sagging, nd the radio works about half ass. The heater linkage is stiff. The brakes are ok but should probably be check out before putting a lot of miles on it, truts are original. The AC components and the rear hatch for the cap are gone. The truck is 35 yrs old - chips, cratches, ittle rust here and there.
Too many vehicles so she needs to go.....
