I’ve got everything I want off of the Santorin car.  There’s little left of it except the frame.  The entire rear subframe and suspension on it are from the Silver car and the front suspension, control arms, etc are also from the Silver car.  Aside from the shell and the front subframe there’s not much else from the Santorin car that will be going to the metal re-cycler.

Even at the metal re-cycler I was still not done yet.

I’ll take the wheels and brake rotors thank you.  The metal re-cycling facility weighed the shell at 1,500 lbs.  With metal going for $10 a pound I left with $150, considering I could almost get that much for the used fog lights I think hanging onto every part I could will prove more lucrative than selling off the scrap metal.

Now that there’s more space in the garage I can begin the work of installing the Santorin cars transmission, shown in foreground, into the Silver car.  The Santorin car’s motor will be held onto since I have plans to build it up to handle some larger turbochargers.

Getting down to the final parts on the Santorin car.  I’ve run out of things to pull off the car that I can think of having a use for, or something that might have resale value.  The interior and exterior are pretty well bare.  There’s a few fuel and brake lines remaining as well as some wiring, but I don’t see them being worth the trouble of removing.

Looking at the rear seats and trunk area.

Another non-production part that I wanted to transfer from the Santorin car over to the Silver car was the Audi B5 RS4 fuel pump.  I’d acquired this when I had the APR Stage 3 K04 kit on the Santorin car and after removing most of that kit I had left the fuel pump in place because it was such a huge hassle to try and remove it.

With the Santorin car going away it became imperative to get the RS4 fuel pump out, no matter how unpleasant the task would be.  I had previously tried to make a tool from some threaded rod with a bolt on it, but this time as I tried to better shape the metal to the curvature of the pump a piece of the rod broke, leaving me with a short length that would not function as intended.

As a back up I began trying various other tools like wrenches and some hose removal tools.  Eventually I was able to get the pump loose, but it was over an hours worth of time spent struggling to get the pump loose.  Taking the stock S4 fuel pump out of the Silver car was slightly quicker because I had an idea of what tool setup would work, but it was still a pain to do.  If I have to do this job in the future I’ll make the investment in the proper tool.
