5

I got the scirrocco for a winter car and i dont want to take a chance of wrecking the beetle on the track so ill use the scirocco on the track.

6

7

yea it was.

8

nice ride! I will have to take a ride in it, never been in one befor.

9

is this the one that was in the snowflake last yr with us?

10

Matt Runyon’s old car. I didn’t think he would let that car go.

11

I took a ride in Tom’s (1stgen) back in college and that car surprised the shit out of me. It threw me back in my seat.

12

yes it was

13

I just edited my thing done to the car list at the top.

14

thought so

15

Holy crap…I just figured out who you are…holy shit. U still have that mustang? Please tell me you actually work in the field…I only know of two of us who still do.

16

Industry/employer FAIL. Unbelievable.

17

Thats the way it seems to be going…

18

this weekend the car goes under the knive. new clutch, rear main seal, wheel bearing, harness bar, just a couple of little things

19

Yeah, unfortunately I still have the Mustang. That might change in the spring though. Im sick of putting money into it and not driving it. It runs now and it might be time to cut my losses.

I no longer work in the automotive field. I did for about 4 years but then got kinda burned out on it and took a job completely unrelated to the field to pay the bills. I worked in a tranny shop for one summer and a body/mechanical shop for 3.5 years.

I didnt realize you didnt know who I was.

It’s hard to know who’s who on here sometimes.
