Friend drove two hours to take me down to look at a Squareback. And the engine mounts and old boot means not going back on.

Doubt it, but anyone know of a possible resource?


Thank y'all so much!

Try Chirco Automotive at 22nd and Harrison on the east side. Joe stocks new parts and also has tons of used stuff.

Thank you so very much! Very Happy

Think he did, seller made several telephone calls. He got a clamp, but after an hour, he couldn't get the boot to stay on.

We spend almost two hours and then decided no. I am not going to drive two and a half to three hours with a cooling boot that might kill an engine that probably run that way for a while.

Friend that took me wanted to see if a possible, ended up good because supposed to get the full deposit back (used PayPal with protection).

Was looking for a daily driver, not a project.
