Thanks a lot Ray,
Glad you see it that way and take a positive message.
Things have become more difficult for us VW nuts here in Pakistan during
the last few years. Many VWs have been scrapped and the new (Brazilian, mostly)
parts importers have stopped getting parts lots in due to reduced demand.
Recently got news that someone is going to get a new lot of all running parts
into the country. Waiting for that.
Most grateful to all the listees for their support and encouragement.
Just wrote back to Bert Knupp in reply to a nice personalized mail.
Best wishes and warm regards,
Asad
Karachi, Pakistan.
