I did not see it but heard about it. Funny but I think I am most like other VW folks in that the fun is in getting the Bug on the road and learning in the process. Driving it is the icing on the cake. That said I will continue to restore as long as I can!

Bought and estored VW bus (panel). I remember searching for my 69/70 bug years ago to estore and was remembering what a guy at a San Antonio swap meet told me. You re way better off from a dollar perspective buying a restored bug from someone t a swap meet or from someone who has gone thru the cost and heartache of a estoration. He told me you would have way more invested than the car was orth...and boy was he right. But, I did learn a tremendous amount from the rocess and now know the wiring harness like the back of my hand, BUT the OST!!! That is what I saw from that show last night, these guys were selling heir projects for minimal profit after putting in all that work and cost. ______________________________________________ intagvw site list [email protected] ttp://lists.sjsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/vintagvw _______________________________________________ vintagvw site list [email protected] http://lists.sjsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/vintagvw
