Subject:FS: '87 Wolfsburg, CA car located in New Orleans
From:Adam Culp
Date:Sat, 9 Sep 2000 12:03:03 -0700

Hello all,
   I am doing something that I never thought I would
do.  I won't even say the words!  Anyways I have
decided that my Wolfy is more than I need at this time
in my life and that a sports car(ie MX-5 roadster)
will better suit my needs.  I would love to keep this
vehicle as I planned on owning her my entire life!
But it is just too difficult for me to have two cars
being a college student(plus I need $$$).
   Anyways about the car. . . . SHe is an '87 with
205k miles with the engine replaced with a VW FACTORY
rebuild in '93 with 100k miles on her.  I am fully
confident that the end of her life is no where to be
seen!  I wanted to take her at least to the 500k mark
if I had the time and held onto her that long.  I
haven't had any major troubles with her except
expected maintenance.  The rear bearing were replaced
along with the rear drums and pads at 200k(the rear
brakes were unneccesary and is a sore subject as I got
some terrible service in NJ!)
   Anyways I have not really tried to sell her yet, or
even get her ready(a few loose ends that need to be
tied), but I thought that I would let the list members
get a shot at her first as maybe you can save some
money and purchase as is.  I plan on asking $4200 for
her when she is all fixed up, to give a price picture.
   I am located in New Orleans(but she is an original
So. Cal car with only 8 months in N.O.) and would be
confident in saying that you could drive her from here
to anywhere!  I just got back from a 7.5K mile trip
with no problems(ran out of gas once!)
   If anybody is interested email me at
aculp2@yahoo.com and I will let you know some more.
Again she is a Wolfsburg with the table and jump seats
intact!  I will truly hate to see her go and would
like and enthusiast to take good car of her when she
leaves my hands.  Thanks for understanding the tough
time I am having with this.  Hopefully she will find a
wonderfull home!

have fun,
ADAM
'87 Wolfy who will be sadly parted with soon :-(
