Hey everyone!
Been lurking for about 10 months, finally decided to make a profile and join up!
I bought my 94 A4 off craigslist, from 600+mi away back in April. Was looking for an inexpensive, fun car to take to Woodward. Its been an adventure. I flew down to Charlotte, NC where the car was. Fixed a few things, and cannonballed it back 10 hours. When i got it it had 68k miles, but it was definitely $4000 worth of corvette....It had allegedly sat for some odd amount of years- so its pretty heavily sun damaged on one side, it also came with a plethora of mechanical and electrical gremlins. Most of that could be attributed to a lack of mechanical ability of the P.O. Bht since then, I've managed to get a lot of the issues worked out.
Including-
New sending unit.
Plugs, wires, coils.
TSW Nurburgring wheels, 285/40r18 all around
lowered the rear.
Corvette central muffler eliminators
fixed AC, blower, power seats (lol fuse fell out, PO told me they were broken).
That being said, ive still got a way to go.
Thanks for having me!

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your C4!
Sounds like you have a good handle on making the necessary repairs and you'll probably find more info in the C4 section of the forum.
