  • FS: 1992 VW Passat GL, sets of summer + winter wheels/rubber

    See newest post - now FREE!

    Alright, time to get this thing posted to see if there's any interest.

    Located in NW Calgary (Sunnyside).

    1992 VW Passat GL, gun-metal grey, ~288,000 km, rebuilt (auto to manual conversion).

    Bad:
    -Plastic parts of bumper falling off due to too many encounters with curbs and snow drifts;
    -Oil leak somewhere in the engine which have affected spark plugs/wires;
    -Minor dings and a couple of rust spots;
    -Window motors in rear windows don't work.

    Good:
    -Interior in very good shape, only one spot where headliner is loose (maybe 3" long);
    -Heated seats work;
    -Nice deck, and sub in trunk;
    -Very fresh rubber as I only started driving to work (3 km) a month ago. For two years this thing was only used on weekends and even then, rarely up until this year.

    Car is a wild-card. Could be used as a daily driver with a bit of work but maybe better for parts. I need it gone ASAP as I'm buying an Audi this week.

    Any offer considered. Start the asking at $800 with either of the sets of wheels (detailed below).









    I have summer and winter wheels and tires for this thing. One set comes with the car, the other set asking $300. Both sets have plenty of tread left, I want to guess 70%? Neither were used extensively... I really didn't drive this car that much on either set.

    185/60/14 Hankook iPikes on 14" four-bolt steelies:



    205/45/16 Kumho Ecsta Supras on 16" Mullen wheels (some Australian company). All with VW centre-caps:



    So again, asking $800 for the car and one set of shoes or best offer, $300 for the other set of shoes or best offer.

    PM or call 466 8887.

          This used to be my car! Those are smoked e-codes as well. Smoked them myslef... The poor bumper was a euro bumper that looks like it could be saved. Painted those wheels in my livingroom and baked them in an apartment sized oven.

          The auto-5 speed swap was done by a friend of mine who installed a very low mile tranny (code escapes me as it was about 4 years ago) and used brand new shift cables and shift mech. box $$$$ (worked for fifth ave at the time and sold them to him). Nothing was half assed on the car so there are plenty of great parts on the car. I think it had 240+k on it so it hasnt seen many miles in the last couple years.

          Also, it looks like it still has the H&R Sport springs and i beleive i used KYB GR2's and used new bearings/mounts when i installed them.

          Hope this helps with the sale!

              Thanks for that info. I knew this car had a history at "the other forum" but couldn't remember who with.

              Still available.

                    Bump. I still have all this stuff.

                    Really need to get rid of this car soon as it's in a friend's garage and he is moving. I really don't think this car deserves to go to the wrecker. Someone please step up and help me get this thing to someone where it will at least find some purpose and value.

                        Started this thing up the other day when I went to grab something out of it. Two months of sitting but she came to life like any other day. If I had the knowledge and space I would fix the bumper damage myself.

                        Bump.

                          Stereo got stolen out of this thing over the winter, dash got a bit smashed up, I need it gone.

                          FREE to whoever wants it. Bring me a bottle of older Scotch if you're a nice person, peaty/smokey is good, 15+ yr ideal. Comes with the winter wheels. I'll sell the summers separately.
