Re: Would you be interested in a B1 calendar?

One month left to get your shots in :) The more the merrier! Snap em anywhere and anytime, just make sure they're HD. Be part of a pretty unique B1 project!

Nice pickup! :-bd I don't believe there are any variants here, only a couple hatchbacks. They were never sold here :( Look after it :)

I'd say the second one is a 78 because that's a facelift on the cover. How much for the two accessories brochures? :)

Re: Would you be interested in a B1 calendar?

*bump* entries for the 2014 edition close at the end of June! Don't forget; photos taken with a camera, not a phone. High res as possible and make it creative! People will be looking at it for a whole month! :)

Search for parts on Ebay.de as there's quite a fair amount of B2s still on the roads there.

Re: WANTED BUMPER, late B2

Keep an eye on Ebay. Especially Ebay.de, there's quite a few B2s roaming around Germany. And a bazillion in Russia, amazingly. If you're willing to freight it, you'll find one :)

Have a look on VWVortex too; there's quite a lot of Quantum owners in the US who have done all kinds of engine swaps on there.

Re: B2 Passat Saloon

Nice find! I had a gold b2 sedan some time ago, possibly only one in Australia but he was verrry rust and shabby and I needed his parts so he's gone to the great crusher in the sky. Is the headlining missing cloth? Or does it look like this? http://i.imgur.com/j9A9n.jpg Just curious as I have not co...

There's only limited numbers left of the calendar, so if you're looking for something unusual for Christmas and the New Year, then grab one now :)

Only $5 each plus postage, should get to the UK within two weeks if you order one now.

You could always respray Dusty yourself :) It's not that hard, just do lots of prepwork like we did. Painted my B1 in the driveway. Buy the paint from a body shop, hire a compressor and off you go :)
