Morning guys! Woke up to 3-4 inches of thick, heavy, and already crusty snow this morning... How pleasant. Woke up late and spent 5 minutes uncovering the truck. I did get to school on time though surprisingly, and as far as I've seen, I haven't forgot anything....

Hope everyone's Friday is worry free and the work day goes by quickly!

It's probably worth about 6k.

Yep I agree that is about all I would give for it if that.

A guy I know sold one that was converted to a 1z diesel motor (mid 90's canadian turbo diesel). sold it for $7500.

Something is worth whatever someone is willng to pay for it. It may of may not be worth that much to you.

That little truck is similar to what I'll be doing. I'll be putting a newer, faster, better mpg motor in my truck.

What's this worth to you Jay?

That is great that it finally sold anyway. Even if the money is already gone. LOL

I am not an old VW fan so none of them are worth anything to me.
