I stripped off the FUBARed body panels today. No major underhood damage. It drives. But damage is far more than the value of the car.
I've always wanted to build one of these as a TDI:
DDR Motorsport
Looks like I've got my donor vehicle... Budget for electric/hybrid shifted over... I was waiting for my mid-life crisis, but then I realize I already had 4 of them by the time I was 30... ;-)
I refuse to be set back and extorted again. I'll just have to kick ass instead.
Guess the thread itself is off topic for the forum at this point. It'll be kinda-sorta green. WMO/WVO. 55+ MPG (after ECU upgrade, passat was already running 51MPG, DDR is more aerodynamic and weighs less).
There is a school in South Florida that DDR hooked up with and are building a hybrid out of it...
