Re: What's the Big Secret?

Well since we are all sharing:

The familys automatic 1969 square for $2650, it ran good for a while untill
the FI craped out, then we found that it was rather rusted under all that
paint in the hood and undercoating in the wells. We paid to much but oh well
there were no other auto early squares around.

WARNING----------the following contains type 2 material

My 68 transporter I bought 2yrs ago-- $400 , I pawned tons of CDs to get my
first VW it wouldnt start, and when it did the exaust spewed black crap
every where, had only 2nd and 4th gears, gutted interior, crap tires, no
brake lights an no turn signals( still dont).

my 71 westy I bought 4 months ago--- $275+ KG parts,with a blown CVs , blown
motor, cracked windshiels( still cracked), with compleat interior but
missing jumpseat ( i later bought one for $15) and it has Brand new tires.
