I'm the new owner of the passat that was for sale on here a few weeks ago. its got a thread about it as well somewhere. started tinkering a bit.
got rid of the side strips. front bumper is off to look for more rust and to get it up some ramps
back bumper off for the same reasons as above
one of the worst spots of rust but it doesnt look too hard to fix.
both of the rear arches look like this. the front right arch is sweet like. the front left has a bad bit but also doesnt look too hard to fix.
the alarm unit that makes an annoying buzz. not sure what to do with it? should I take it out or not? has a real mess of wiring in the engine bay but I don't think it has any immobiliser powers? what would you do??
today I got rid of the redundant stereo wiring. have an amp and sub and some cables oing begging if any one fancies em. the electric windows now work with the engine running! the new head unit is in.
next week hopefully the rust will start getting done. putting a new starter in it. the clutch seems to be getting a bit worse might try to see about that.
