What a nice photo! Nice lighting, framing, reflections in the glass, lit instruments, and of course the subject matter. Did the gas gauges ever come with red needles? I'd have thought so, but I don't recall you guys ever talking about them? It's nice to hear about stock type 3s that don't think twice about going 80; I get so tired of hearing about how they just won't do this in stock condition when so many of us know that 80 is easy and 100 is attainable, given time. ;-) -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
