Good luck. Truly "nice" Mk2s are starting to skyrocket in price. Expect to pay AT LEAST $4,500 for a low mileage, rust free car.
im not looking for something that nice.. i just need no dents (i dont care about paint) and a blown engine/tranny.. and an OK interior... the rest
(brakes, engine, tranny) is getting swapped into the mk2, from my mk3.
(and possibly the 5lugs so i can use my sawblades too)

well im putting on 5 lugs for better selection of wheels (stock mk2 wheels are teh grossness)
anything but mk2 wheels ftw.

Unless you use adapters, which will force you to use high offset wheel (i.e. no lip), you'll find it cheaper to buy custom wheels that fit the 4 lug. A set of the 5 lug rear MS123 axles last time I checked were about $500 out of australia. Most of the front upgrades will force you into upgrading the brakes as well. Last time I thought about doing it I figure about $1300 to swap over to 5 lugs at the minimum
really? i hadnt looked into it yet.. thanks for the info.
Hopefully i can find some good size 4 lugs.. (trying to get 10"wide in the back)
