Wanted: old useless MK1 rear struts/springs

[OptimusGlen]

Trying to come up with a plan for rear suspension in the Locost, wondering if I can get the VW parts to work with the 4-link setup.

If you have anything kicking around in your garage, let me know.

Not looking for good parts, struts can be blown and springs could be rusted. Just need to take dimensions off it. That said, I'm hoping to spend not much.

i have my old mk3 ones if that would work, not blown.

Got two in the barn but can't remember if they're front or rear. Will check- you can just have em if they're rear.

[OptimusGlen]

Saweeeeet.

Not sure if the MK1 and MK3 parts differ, but I would want to go with mk1 on the final product because of the cars weight difference.

I have some in my garage. They're all yours free of charge if you want them. I think they're ok but there's a cut off bolt seized up in the lower mounting hole.

[OptimusGlen]

Where are you guys located?

[CabbyScott]

I live in new London. I could probably meet you in st cloud if you're willing to throw me a couple bucks for gas or I'll be in Becker on Saturday and could throw them in my car.

[OptimusGlen]

eek, either of you guys planning on getting to the Twin cities in the next couple months? As much as I'd like yours, I wont be able to get up to St.Cloud or Becker anytime soon. And Sven, are you out in Michigan or in Stillwater right now?

[CabbyScott]

I'll be there the 15 and 16 of September. Tickets to Acme.

I forgot that I'll be down there sometime in the next couple weeks too, when Pete is done with our wedding pics we have to meet up to get them from him.

[Sven7]

Stillwater. I gradumatated

Forgot to check today. Will do later. Perhaps we can meet up and I'll trade you for some advice on kit car stuff

[OptimusGlen]

yeah for sure!
