Many people know how rare these are in NA. I drove 20 hours a few years ago to get b pillars and doors for my Sport quattro project. Well I found this car not 50kms from my house!!!

It's been in a barn for 20 years, a 1 owner car.

I need another car like a hole in the head however these things are so rare.

A few pics of the car

Cheers,

Craig.

Does this mean you're building a second sport quattro? :D

Jim, I would have loved to have built a 2 door urq clone ,3b and all, however I need to focus on getting the sport done.

If all goes well this car will be getting a mechanical restoration and that will be all..........for the moment :)

Cheers,

Craig

Yeah. No hurry. Id just Q it and work some bigger round flares. I guess URQ ones would be almost as much work if you had the panels.
