VW's rule...

I recently got the old Dub running again. It still needs a boatload of repairs like new CV joints, some TLC on the brakes and such. But other than that is running.

It was down like three months due to a bad battery and lack of time to get it fixed. But it started like a champ after I replaced the offending battery. I almost cried of joy when I heard the engine's muffled roaring on idle. Not bad for a 22yo card! It sounds so nice, just like a kitten's purring.

I'm amazed at how sturdy this car is. Made to be ridden hard and put away wet.

Unfortunately it was just not cutting it as a family car anymore and had to be replaced with what you see in the pics. I sure miss to drive it, though!
