  • My best friend! 1990 NG Coupé

    This is my first car. I actually bought her back in -09, but had to sell her in the fall of -11 because I was in the middle of moving and I lost my job.
    I swore I would by her back, and about a month ago, I DID!

    She dont have the composure as she once had because of some neglectful owners, but I have big plans for her!
    Total overhaul so she can keep up with me forever

    Some of the plans include, but are not limited to;
    MC1/2 Swap
    Front S2 struts, hubs, brakes
    Rear A4 B5 hubs, brakes
    New paintjob
    And some very light bodywork

    Until then I'll just share some of her best pics, and I'm happy to answer any questions!
















    Also, if you happen to understand Swedish, here's some more info and an early project-thread;

            It is really amazing, I'll definitely respray it the same color.

                Third time's the charm I guess!
                Why give it up 3 times if I might ask?

                      Very nice coupe and if that's a neglected coupe from previous owners I'd love to see one that's not!! Looks mint

                        That's old pics from when I first owned it. After I sold it some real jackass got a hold of her and messed some things up pretty bad.

                        That's okey since I'm going to tear her down and fix EVERYTHING anyways. But sad to look at

                              I'm actually running on ethanol (E85) in that video, not quite right mixture though 'cuz of a semi-broken multimeter.
