HI I AM LISTING A RESTORED 1972 AUDI SUPER 90 2 DOOR. THIS MODEL WAS BASED ON THE DKW F103, ONCE MERCEDES SOLD THE AUTO UNION COMPANY TO VW IN THE MID 60'S, VW REVIVED THE AUDI NAME AND RESKINNED THE F103 AND REPLACED THE 2 STROKE, 3 CYLINDER ENGINE WITH THE 1.8 LITER 4 CYLINDER, 4 STROKE ENGINE. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN THE WINTER 07-08 FROM A CHICAGO AUDI MECHANIC THAT HAD PURCHASED THE CAR A COUPLE YEARS PRIOR FROM THE ESTATE OF THE ORIGINAL OWNER IN CALIFORNIA, HE KEPT THE CAR FOR A COUPLE YEARS, BUT DID NOT DRIVE IT, WHEN HE REALISED HE DID NOT HAVE TIME TO DO ANYTHING WITH IT, I PURCHASED IT WITH THE INTENTION OF RESTORING IT, WELL THAT HAS BEEN DONE AND IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER AUDI LOVER TO CARE FOR IT, I GAVE IT A NEW LEASE ON LIFE AND HAVE OTHER PROJECT TOP PLAY WITH: WHAT WAS DONE: NEW PAINT JOB BY "BIGGKUSTOMS" IN THE ORIGINAL COLOR, INTERIOR LOOKS VERY GOOD EXCEPT FOR A SMALL WEAR SPOT ON THE DRIVER SEAT, THE REST, INCLUDING THE HEADLINER IS IN GREAT SHAPE, NO RIPS ON THE DASH EITHER. MECHANICALLY: THE ENGINE WAS REMOVED, TORN DOWN, CLEANED, NEW SEALS AND GASKETS, NEW HOSES, NEW EXHAUST VALVES, NEW WATER PUMP, NEW PLUGS, POINTS, WIRES, AIR FILTER, ALL ALUMINIUM ENGINE PARTS WERE POWDER COATED ALUMINIUM COLOR SO THEY WILL NOT TARNISH OVER TIME, ALL OTHER PARTS WERE POWDER COATED BLACK. NEW CLUTCH, THROW OUT BEARING, NEW STARTER. ALL ENGINE WORK WAS PERFORMED BY A BMW MASTER TECH, IT WAS ALL DONE RIGHT. ALSO: NEW MUFFLER, NEW SHOCKS, NEW REAR BRAKES, NEW FRONT BRAKES AND REBUILT CALIPERS, NEW "AUVECO" CLIPS FOR THE TRIM. THE UNDERCARRIEGE OF THE CAR WAS RUST FREE AND TO KEEP IT THAT WAY IT WAS GIVEN THE 3 STEP POR15 TREATMENT, THAT IS WHY IT LOOKS SO SHINNY ON THE PICTURES, THE SAME WAS DONE FOR THE INNER FENDERS. I KNOW THAT THE CAR WILL NOT SELL FOR THE PRICE OF THE PAINT JOB AND ALL THE PARTS, BUT RESTORING IT WAS A HOBBY AND SOMETIMES IT IS MORE THAN JUST THE FINANCIAL RETURN, I MET GREAT PEOPLE BOTH HERE AND IN EUROPE TRYING TO FIND PARTS FOR THE CAR. ( THE WHEEL TRIM RINGS CAME FROM FRANCE, THE HOSES FROM GERMANY AS WEEL AS THE PASSENGER SIDE TRIM, TURN SIGNAL LENSES FROM GERMANY.... I AM ONLY SELLING IT TO FINANCE ANOTHER PROJECT, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED, IT IS VERY CLEAN, WAS PROPBALY ONLY DRIVEN 100 MILES SINCE THE RESTORATION, IT COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL GLOVE BOX MANUAL AS WELL AS A BRAND NEW ONE FROM 1972, THE ENGINE PARTS AND MECHANICAL PARTS ARE EASY TO GET ON THE INTERNET FROM ROCKAUTO, CLASSIC GARAGE OR EBAY, ONLY BODY PANELS OR TRIM PIECES ARE MORE CHALLENGING. THE CAR IS LISTED LOCALLY AND ON OTHER SITES SO I AMY END THE AUCTION EARLY, PLEASE BID OR FEEL FREE TO MAKE REASONNABLE OFFERS! THE CAR WAS RESTORED BUT IS A 1972 SO IT IS SOLD "AS IS", I WILL INCLUDE ALSO A REPAIR MANUAL BUT YOU SHOULD BE GOOD DRIVING IT FOR A FEW YEARS TROUBLE FREE, I TOOK A SIMILAR CAR ON A 3 DAY 2500 MILE TRIP WITH NO ISSUES. THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD MAKE THE CAR MORE" DRIVEABLE" LONG DISTANCE WOULD BE A 5 SPEED GEAR BOX INSTEAD OF THE 4 THEY ALL CAME WITH. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME BY E-MAIL, I AM PROBABLY FORGETTING A FEW THINGS THAT WERE DONE, I ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS EXCEPT FOR THE $200 OFFER ONE! I ALSO WELCOME INSPECTIONS, THE CAR IS LOCATED IN SOUTH EAST MICHIGAN. PLEASE ASK YOUR OTHER HALF, BANKER, WHOMEVER YOU MIGHT BE BORROWING THE MONEY FROM BEFORE BIDDING. I ALSO WILL NOT ACCEPT A CHECK FOR $40k AND GIVE THE DIFFERENCE TO YOUR SHIPPER!!!!! HAPPY MOTORING FRANCOIS
