Dammit....I'm not going to follow this! I've already talked myself out of this project a couple of times, but keep getting lured back in with these build threads. I have a perfectly fine '03 A6 6spd sedan sitting on the outside of my garage for the swap parts and my wife Ok'd my garage expansion plans from a single to a 28-30' wide & extra deep option...time to talk to my architect friend and builder neighbor to get this done!

My son and I have discussed parting the A6 for a fun project...seems like now is the time...
