Default Recent purchase.

I just bought this today and will be bringing it home over the weekend. I'm needing any information you can give me on the car and what to look for on it. So I'm pretty well aware of the basic backlog of maintenance that I just purchased but I'm having a harder time finding the online resources and support that I have with my other cars (E21 BMW, 190e Mercedes) with those two cars I've got a very good understanding of the K-jet system so there's that. All I really know about this car so far is that it will "run" with starting fluid so obviously a fuel delivery issue.
When I was looking at it today I noticed several relays are missing or unplugged so I'm really leaning towards that more than I am the actual fuel pump. I haven't been able to find a good fuse box diagram online and at this point I'm not going to purchase a manual until I'm ready to start spending cubic dollars on this project.
So if anyone can point me towards a good source of information or this car I would greatly appreciate it.

Is that a quattro Coupe GT? Doesn't look to have the flared fenders of an UR Quattro.

Those weren't sold in the US right?

you should try the 4000 / coupe GT forum here

This is is sticker from the drivers side door. It is odd that it shows an individual's name rather than a dealer or importer. I'm kind of guessing that it was directly imported by the owner. I would like to find out more about it, but information seems scarce and I don't really know enough about Audis to make assumptions.
