Corroda

Hi Blue95, Please put me on the list. Preference would be to get one sympathetic to the original, but happy to go with something that can be made available, and will pass the MoT. New on her, so not sure how to post links, but here is a thread from 2017, which listed some people that were interested in getting the stainless steel / aluminium unit that was being discussed at the time. They may also be interested in a possible alternative. http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?96411-Radiator-support-Crossmember

I was pleasantly surprised to find out the number of parts are available through Volkswagen Classic Parts, but have just had confirmation from VW Heritage that; VR6 wings, outer sills, and the radiator support brackets are no longer available.

Hi, looking to get a radiator support bracket for a VR6. Looking for as good a condition as is available, but will be shot blasting and powder coating therefore surface rust is not a problem. Ideally I would like the power steering cooler pipe that attaches to the bracket. I live in the north of Scotland, so item will require posting / couriering at my expense. Please PM me if you have anything that may be of interest.

Hi Sean, Sorry to jump on to your thread, but I'm in a similar position to yourself, but with an 80k mile VR6. The extent of the rot seems to be limited to the following: Both doors (one could be repaired) Tailgate (could be repaired), Radiator Support Member (It's gone), 3 small patches on the floor, and may be wise to replace outer sills, All steel work on front and rear bumpers There is rust around the windscreen, and I think there is a little water getting in here, Car also needs new brake discs, pads, (possibly calipers), suspension struts, and wishbones. The car does have the following positive points though: Completely original, with no accident damage (apart for rotten door) Engine, gearbox, clutch and exhaust all seem to be working well, Back end; wheel arches, fuel filler, rear panel appear to be rust free, apart for a localised hole right at the Corrado badge. My plan is to spend the minimum possible to get it through an MoT, and then run it for a while to see if it's worth committing to improving it cosmetically. Currently sourcing parts, but having difficulty sourcing the Radiator Support Member. I noticed a thread on here a while back, where someone was looking at getting some stainless steel / aluminium parts made, but it didn't seem to come to anything. I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me track down one in good condition.

Hi, I'm new to the forum, so not sure what's been discussed before, but I believe the sunroof guides that are a common failure are no longer a a available, and would be a good option for 3D printing in metal.
