[T3] I'm back...


Added another 1900 miles on Sophy over the last week.  She performed
flawlessly on the 800 mile trip to Northern Minnesota and back.  Averaged a
tick over 25 mpg with a best tankfull of 28.3 mpg after I was pulled over
for speeding and cooled things down a bit. <G>  She would happily cruise
along at 75-80 on the interstate.  Only used a quart of oil on the whole
trip.  Couldn't be happier with her.

Only minor thing I have to fix after the trip is one of the return springs
on one of the rear brake shoes broke.  Is this a T3 part only?  It is
definitely different then the spring on an IRS beetle.
