'91 G60 Rado Build

[Slider388]

Well that was short lived.
Two months and two days after I bought it, the corrado already found its demise.
I had it on jack stands with a trans jack under it as I was pulling the trans, the car was behind my parents house. I went over there today and this is what I found:









I'm pretty heartbroken right now, I didn't even get a chance to have fun with it. I doubt I'll get as much as I've put into it from insurance.
Looking for a new corrado/scirocco in the ohio area.

**** man... that sucks. Hope you can find a new one and get good money from the insurance company.

Where did you get the o ring for the silencer?

Damn just saw those pictures... That's a tough one. :/

Where did you get the o ring for the silencer?

O ring for the silencer came with the bbm G lader rebuild kit. I can't find a part # but maybe bbm can, or at least the dimension of the o ring.
My replacement slc is nice, but I can't wait to get another g60.

that's a ****ty deal man, was happy to see someone still using the g-ladder....tough break

find another one and swap all the good parts over and start again, hopefully insurance pays out well

Wow. I was not expecting this to be the end of the story!

This was a great thread. You were picking up Corrado repair incredibly quickly. Rebuilding a G60 s/c on a first try? Impressive. Hope your next car is another G60. I'd love to see a finished project.

GL!

As fellow 90 Tornado Red owner, I was following your thread as well to see the end result and to also commend you on digging into a g-ladder rebuild and getting it right!

Im really sorry to see and read about this. See if the insurance company will let you keep the car as part of your settlement, if you havent settled this yet??
