I dont think its been on its lid because there is like no paint missing of the roof, just the places near the creases and stuff.

I will check about the AWD.

Mine was FWD & I converted it to AWD , but one can never tell unless you look under the body. There is so many FWD to AWD conversions out there these days one needs check

Okay, ive decided that im not going to start the conversion until november of 2011. This will give me six months to complete the conversion so that it will be ready for me when i get my blacks.

Ive decided to go with the 2.0 turbo, not sure about trans upgrades but because its far away i may get a new one done before. I plan to keep my bug on the road till 2011 so i was wondering what parts can i start to collect to make it easier to do when the time comes. The long plan will help with costs because i plan on getting a job soon so will by bit by bit and be able to upgrade it as i go.

I was at the Highlands motor fest and spoke to a guy with 3 libs sitting at home and all run just no rego so will be speaking to him alot. i plan on buying a whole car in best shape posssible so that can scavenge for parts.

I have got a list together of all the parts i think i will need and rough prices.

Idlike to thank everyone that has helped so far and who will continue to help on this forum.

Don't mean to hijack the thread but speaking of selling off liberty parts I also have a subaru liberty conversion going in a kombi and no idea what I could salvage and sell from the donor.

T's s a 1992 gx automatic AWD which has done only 80,000kms. All electrics work and all interior is in brand new condition. What bits would be worth selling off before bringing to a wrecker. How much would you be listing the auto trans and AWD components for? Air conditioner was just re gassed do you think it's worth selling? cheers,erik
