Like my 90q is not rare enough I've decided I needed something more..

First idea was to get a tired S2 and throw in the tdi into it.
Then use the ABY to power my SQ project.
But, S2s are actually going up in value and it's hard to find a car that has good body for peanuts.

So.. I managed to find a very rare car indeed, probably as rare as an S2 itself, but for a lot less.

Here is a 1993 Audi 80 quattro 2.3E Avant. with the NG engine.. ;)









My good friend Pawel Rydel, the one who found me the previous 2.5tdi engine is going to do the conversion on the other side of the pond...
Makes things a bit easier on me, and he has access to all the parts needed anyway.
He already found the donor car with AAT engine.







And has already started to take it out and apart (for new belts gaskets etc. etc.)

Plan is

6-speed gearbox (already purchased)
Large injectors and matching software
S2 ABY front crossmember and I/C (already purchased)
S2 front and rear bumpers (already purchased)
S2 Avant suspension all around (already purchased).
Quattro script interior with Recaro S2 fronts

More updates as they go.

Even so, if he said that he'd do the work why did he leave it with someone else?

Surely if its more money in norway then he could do it in norway?

If you ever get the car/parts back and want to sell the seats pm me, cash or parts exchange. I want some to retrim. Hope you get it sorted.

Time to revive the project
Found another shop in Poland willing to take over and finish the car for me...
This is what they received... I feel like crying.

On a positive note the new shop has actually finished few projects and they are on FB so updates will not be an issue.

Onward and upwards!!

Still there... the car is found but a some of the parts were missing or broken.. like the impossible to find replacement timing belt covers.
The engine has been cleaned and new belt/seals etc installed.
7A oil pan installed...

Soon... I can feel it now... ;)
