Over past 8 months I have been redoing an 87 Audi 4000 Quattro. Was pretty rough when I bought it for 600 dollars. it made the 100 mile drive home effortlessly. On that drive, it set its own fate, it blessed me with working cruise control, and ice cold A/C, and drove like an absolute GEM. I knew then I would save him, and make it my full time project. Previous owner state that the vehicle exited the roadway unintentionally and entered a wooded area. As you can see it received substantial damage. I work in a body shop so I undertook the project of fixing it.
cant tell from previous pics but the rocker was chrushed flat here, and I didn't have a new piece, so I made it from scratch
in the trunk even the frame rail had a light buckle. but I don't have a pic of it.
I had a parts car for sport Quattro reasons, so I had a new door fender and trunk lid.
the entire floor is going under my shorty coupe.
the corner of the quarter panel above tail light was crushed flat, so not the best repair, and full panel had rust, I sectioned the corner on
fixed all other dings and dents all over car.
Primed entire car 4 coats
blocked it all out
Now for ease of job, I fully intended on respraying in tornado red. Now I like tornado red, but there are like 3-4 of these local, and 3 are red. all of em I tend to see in travels are red. so I opted for a nice medium grey. so I landed on Lamborghini Grigio Telesto Grey paint code 0098
started shooting grey sealer
mixed up the color
shot the car
From there I began reassembly
Got it cut, de-nibbed and polished and tossed er outside
Got It lowered a bit, and now I need to install the AAN 20VT I built and powdercoated for it. Also need to redo the black around the windows.
That's all for now! stay tuned
