1983 audi ur quattro ( Relisted with lower reserve ) These cars are becoming harder to find. Especially solid cars such as this. History:I purchased this car during the summer. Saving it from an auction and uncertain future. In doing research I found the car was for sale on the east coast. The car was then purchased by someone in Missouri or Oklahoma. I was told by a technician who wanted to start selling classic cars. During his ownership he added new brakes and lines, replaced windshield and had bodywork and new paint done. Unfortunately his business failed and the car was sent to auction. This man must have cared alot about this car as he took care in packaging all of the spare parts in boxes in the trunk. He replaced the windshield as well. The car has a newer mc1 engine from an audi 5000 according to the previous owner. When I got the car I started replacing items including doing a tuneup of the engine to give a new future owner a smooth running engine. Getting the last plug out was met with failure as the plug was fused to the head and broke off. Instead of doing a quick fix I wanted a proper repair done so ordered a head from efi express ( well known audi urq shop on the east coast and my tuner for my other urq rally car ) he had it machined and replaced anything that wasnt 100 % in spec. The car was brought to a shop here in Michigan and head replaced. List of new parts added:Rebuilt headSteel head gasketNew water pumpNew timing beltNew thermostatNew radiator from coupe gt non aux cooler typeNew lower radiator hoseNew motor mount pass side (rubber cracked in old)New tiresNew sunroof crank New exterior decals from audi germanyNew accelerator cable from audi germanyNew upgraded accelerator bushing under dashNew distributor cap, rotor, plugsNew oil filter , oilCoolant system flushed new coolantNew batteryNew from audi germany key blank to make spareNew fuel injector sealsNew starter The good:Rare very solid car with only a couple of spots of rust found in the weep hols in lower trunk under the car. Late model car with the desired late model fuse box and suspension Items that need attention that Im aware of :Engine has hesitation which may be vaccum line leaks and or intake sensor. I have purchased new correct vaccum line and sensor. Have not installed, but hope to before the auction ends. Drivers side power window in op. I removed switches. Needs new regulator. A/C not working. I removed a/c condensor during radiator repair and will be in trunkOld radiator and aux cooler included. Both need recoredPrevious owner repainted car both bodywork was not perfect. Good driver and show not concours. Cracked lower front air damn. I would get euro bumpers. The center diff lock inop. Could be switch or vaccum leaks. The awd does work. The speedometer doesnt function and I have not looked into what is wring with it. Tach does work. Radio not functioning. Wasnt a priority repair. Besides listening to a 5cyl audi turbo is much more fun.
