heh heh heh...I like the "suggestions". Why not make it a total custom? You sound handy with a welder (I'm jealous) so go for something wild. Make it TOPLESS, like a roadster with only a half windshield and simple, spartan interior with a single (Type I?) gauge showing, strictly for sunny days. When done sell it if you wish. Otherwise I select option 6, then 5 :( Toby Erkson, air_cooled_nut@pobox.com '72 VW Squareback 1.6L bored and stroked to 2.0L '75 Porsche 914 1.8L Portland, Oregon, http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/8501/ ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Project gone sour Author: type-3-errors@umich.edu at SMTPGATE Date: 12/8/97 10:47 PM The story of a project gone sour... ... Hereís where Iíd like some advice from the group. I have several options, select the one you think is best: 1. Roll it off a cliff 2. Trade it for a clean, low-miles í69 Fastback 4 speed sunroof, with a factory tachometer, working air conditioning and a gas heater (If you know of anyone who is willing to do this trade, please let me know which mental health facility heís living at) 3. Sell it whole as a project - cheap. Someone with a different vision for the car might be satisfied with the end result ñ such as a drag racer with roll cage, or perhaps a full custom of one variety or another 4. Suck it up. Admit it is a flawed car, finish it, keep it, drive it. (This is not very likely -- I'm tired of this project) 5. Light it on fire, then roll it off a cliff. 6. "Notchbash" Ö take it to the next big VW event, rent people a sledgehammer for $10 a blow. 7. Part it out (sorry, I canít ship sheet metal) 8. Sell tickets, light it on fire, then roll it off a cliff ...
