Bug-run '98 report
There were less than a half dozen T3's in the show area; couple custom
notches, Toby, and a late model square. Believe it or not there was a
T4 squareback all done up in 70's pinstripping with a sign: "go ahead
and laugh at my T4, I'm used to it".
Toby's car was looking nicer than ever. I got a close look at that oil
cooler mount (read: future project for Phillip?). That 5 speed has got
to be considered a pure driver's investment, because you can't SEE how
bitchin' it is...
There was an immaculate low mileage '66 fast in the for sale area
$4,000. It looked like the trunk(s) had never seen daylight before!
The paint was as good as new, owned by little old lady...etc. It was
white with a spectacular red interior. I mean everything was red; seats,
panaling, carpet, armrests, dash, steering wheel, steering shaft, even
the turn signal lever! WOW If you don't want to bother with doing a
restoration call Gary Ledgerwood @ 1-800-547-2594.
I came home from the swap meet with almost new front signal lenses, a
generic Saphire radio, and a chrome radio hanger ($10! and I'd been
searching for over a year for this). Do you all think the neighbors
will enjoy my dash speaker thumpin' out the AM jams?
