Thanks very much John. I'm on 0872290716.

Well Cathal, spoke to feargal McKevitt yesterday.. the guy that has the green fasty.
He realises now that he is probably never going to do anything with the car.. its been in his ownership now for 10 years and he is no further on.

So looks like it's up for sale.
I looked at it a couple of years ago and it was very bad. The rust has taken a good hold of it; a body swap is probably the most realistic route to take.
It does have an engine and was allegedly driven into its current resting spot, although its not the original 1835cc unit.
Porsche wheels, J bugs seats, leather dash, electric windows and central locking are all there.

It's sitting in a shed outside Dundalk, let me know if you're interested and I'll arrange for you to look at it.
Price wise, haven't got a clue what he's looking for it.
Don't think there would be a mad rush to buy a fasty that needs a full resto....

let me know if you want to have a look, Paul T.

hey blzeedub,

Might be interested in these for spares... Just wondering..

Bit of a long shot but would you be interested in swapping for a known good 1.9tdi gearbox, would suit a T3 TDI swap.. ive had one on adverts since i broke my passat http://www.adverts.ie/car-parts-accessories/passat-5-speed-gearbox/4792376

I was keeping it in case my current jx ever blew up but the spare engines migth make that option redundent.

I think we dealt before on a set of ex corrado alloys in the old days of vagdrivers ;)
im in clarecastle

Cheers,

Hi Pat,

Tim,

As I said, I'm a bit far away as I'm near belfast and don't have access to a trailer however would be interested in the car less the parts you and others may want. I'm a bit a car saver myself, hence why I end up with too many wrecks lol. If you ever go on the nboc site you will see some of my 'projects'! Have to say the squareback would make a great rat looker and I'd love to save her. Sure let me know if you get her and perhaps we could sort a deal out for the car itself.

Hi Chris,

Whatever rocks your boat. But that squareback wont be restored by any of the eircooled well wishers.
Same as the fasty in Drogheda. They mean well, but that dont get the job done. So you are looking for the shell then.
If you cant come down for the car, how you gonna get the shell. Must check out the nboc, i am a member anyway.

Cheers Tim, sorry I didnt get back sooner, I am still learning my way round the site and only just found your reply! Yeah if the car was in the north I could get something arranged but Cork is a bit far to call in a favour! Also if you are already dealing with the seller, I wont tread on your toes as I do understand the car is really a breaker and would be certainly useful if you need parts - I do admire type 3/4 owners given how difficult parts supply is! Mind you I dragged a 412 out of a field last year, little of it left so it will have to be a drag car, there are pics on nboc of the rescue lol. If you do get the squareback, do let me know before you might chop it up and i'll see what I can do to get it off you. I have this thought of it as ratty, lowered, narrowed with gas burners- which i just cant shift out of my head!! lol
