oh, it's not that I don't think that the aircooled vws aren't good snow 
cars, Its the salt that kills the old cars that scares me. Besides- The 
Jetta has a set of old rally tires/wheels that is more fun than a 
yardfull of hebmullers in the snow (where did I come up with that 
one???). It a dune buggy turning brake on it (?!?) and some H20 heat...

Old VWs do look cool in the snow, tho!  :-D
