    Abby's replacement Cabrio content.

    So awhile ago I wrecked my black cabrio:


    So I found another Cabrio guy wanted $3300 for it but I talked him down to $2600. Shes in pretty good nick.


    Good:
    CABRIO
    recent paint
    5speed with short shift kit, needs bushings but its got a nice throw
    Historic Status
    Rip free interior!
    New muffler
    New tires
    Hella Fogs!
    edit:ES front valence
    OBC WORKS!
    top is in great shape recently replaced

    Bad:
    Small rust bubble above rear arch
    struts are shot(I still have Abby's suspension)
    Needs pads and rotors
    ABS light is on.... anybody know if late model abs units work for early?
    some more rust on the inside to the fenders too gotta por15 them
    typical leaks
    typical lack of a working odometer.
    cracked dash

    on to the pictures!



    rust bubble:



    rando hella head light the rest are sylvania






    Looking forward to getting the wrenches turing on this thing!

          Ah I was wondering about that I always mix them up plus this is my first early model that had any type of "s" spoiler.

                            I like the black top, the interior is fun though.
