picked up a 90 tsi awd about a month ago. it was covered in about 10 feet of snow. the car is missing the engine, tranny, ecu, awd driveshaft, cross member, exhaust, some kids thought it woulld be funny to smash the tailights n the headlights so ill have to replace those, also the front n rear bumper need replacement. interior is missing a shit ton of interior. car also needs a paintjob. kinda on a budget so not upgrading much atm but will hopefully in the future. crossing my fingers to get it running by summer. I got the block, head, crank, etc. Now its time to order the pistons, rods, gaskets, main n rod bearings. So far ive takn the front n rear bumpers off, took the tailgihts n headlights off n stripped the interior. My plans for now:

Engine:
Rebuilt 6 bolt
New Pistons
New Rods
New Gaskets
New Main n rod bearings, etc.
Evo 16g
Fmic Kit
Intake
Full Exhaust
Walbro 255 fuel pump
550cc-650cc injectors

Tranny:
havn trouble finding one out of a 90 so going with a 91+

Exterior:
Replace Taillights
Replace Headlights
Replace front bumper
Replace rear bumper
2g gsx wheels powdercoated black
Lowered
15% tint all the way around
Paint the car black

Interior:
New black interior
Got some black racing seats in my garage that im throwin in the car

PS: if you have any of the parts i need that i listed above please lmk!

Did ya get the car for free? Haha, that's a lot to be missing, and to be replaced/repaired. Sounds like a good amount of work, but that's the fun in it.

That's pretty bad ass that you're making a project out of what seemed like some one abandoned.

Good luck dude, and it'll be fun to watch the progress you make on it!
