bing-bing -- possible Mk1 instead...

[gooddane66 at yahoo.com (Phil Boeye)]

Well, you've got a hell of a point on the rust issue
and relative value.  The one area I am a neophyte is
bodywork, but that will have to change now regardless
of what I get.  But as a starting point...

It does sound like the interior is in great shape - a
garage-kept car.  Which I can appreciate.  And it is
relative value.  I can go a few hundred this way or
that because hey, it ain't a $25K car that I'll be
making payments on.

So we'll see.  He said he'll post more pics soon. 
That will help me decide a bit better.

Here's a question: do the euro bumpers work equally on
Mk1s & Mk2s?  Or are they different bumpers that are
needed?
