I just bought a radiator from Hans auto parts (the harbor freight of VW parts). Perfect fit. I'll let you know in a week if it blows up/springs a leak.

What part number was it?

Drove FrankenWagen to DMV to title & license it, As I pulled out of the parking lot all of a sudden the engine reves by the throttle, I hear some wining noies out od the transmission & the gear selector goes into all 6 positions but no movement. No bangs no unusual noises out of the transmission. Becaus I also need a Tailgate, I guess I'm pulling the trigger to put it in it's grave.

Hmm. Did the bolt fall out that attaches the lower linkage to the input shaft from the transmission?

Yeap present, tight, trans shifts properly, clutch works OK, I verified with a borescope the input shaft tp the transaxel is being turned by the motor & not slipping. It appears that the ring & pinion in the differential are no longer in contact. Given what I learned about "Boy Blunder" I suspect the Audi 4000 that provided the engine & trans he put in FrankenWagon had transaxel issues and he did his usual bs repair to it before selling it to the person I bought it from.

Turns out the issue was a outer CV joint failure without any warning clicking noises etc.After I got it back to the shop I got it on a set of ramps so I could look underneath it, I didn't block/chock the rear wheels opened the tailgate to get some stuff from inside & left for the day. When I came back the next morning it had rolled off the ramps slamming the tailgate into a stud in the wall breaking the rear windshield and severely twerking the tailgate. After looking at what it would cost to fix all of this I decided to put it out of it's Missouri (Spelling intended). I sold it to someone who was kind of local to me.
