After I tragically lost my mk4, I’m left with some hard to get rid of parts, it’d be a shame to junk them, and there’s been no interest on fb marketplace, so I’m just looking for suggestions on how to sell or get rid of these, especially the doors. I don’t have door cards with them, and it’s for a 2 door with manual windows and mirrors. 2 brand new mirrors, and a brand new driver’s door lock actuator. (The dark spot on the door is me hiding my reflection lol) I may also have a couple other odds and ends left but this is most of it.

Have a lifted volvo 945, kinda a pos with some of the rust, especially where it’s rusting, but it’s a pretty cool car that gets a lot of attention. Wanted to clean it up just to find out it’s a fair bit worse than I was hoping. Couple spots along the top windscreen flange/pinch weld goes right through, tried grinding it down a bit just to see, and sandblasted a couple other spots as a test. I doubt I’d be able to get it all out short of cutting out the flange around the sides and top and getting it re-welded. I can (in theory) make the formed sheet metal angles. For myself, I plan on letting it find a new owner it sooner rather than later to make room for my partner’s project that they will be far more motivated to work on. Don’t “really” want to do a so-called hack job of it and give someone else the can of worms to discover either. But also don’t know if it’s even worth all the work to re-weld it. Might be too stupid of a thing to post, but whatever I guess.

Sitting at home when I heard a loud crash outside, only to find some idiot probably drunk old man has hit my car hard enough to explode my rear rim and knock the rear spring clear out of the vehicle. It’s totalled. I doubt I’ll be able to get another just like it. Not a common model of tdi, being 3door, manual, with manual windows and mirrors and a stage 1.5 tune. Barely any rust at 385k kms, and a lot spent on recent maintenance, with a pile of parts still waiting to be installed. Absolutely heartbroken.

Some dipshit old man (probably drunk) managed to hit three parked cars, but mostly my mk4 3door alh tdi. It’s totalled. There’s not another like it on the market anywhere near me either, and especially not as clean, with a manual transmission, manual mirrors and windows, and with the stage 1.5 tune. I’d also recently done the clutch/timing/waterpump at a shop, and have a pile of parts to make it nearly 100%. 385k kms. I’m really just devastated. It could have gone so much further.
