<x-charset iso-8859-1>I saw a square on the net for sale that was just wonderful, so I drove 8
hours in my sloooooow bus only to find out that it was rusty , had a bad
repaint , overspray on other things, silver paint in the tires from the rims
and had several dents. The guy wasn't there but his wife was and she had no
clue.... I left and went to the closest vw shop to scrounge the yard and
found out that the guy had sent me pics that were 10 years old from Arizona
before it rusted out at the beach.

....On the other hand , I found a 66 square on the net and the guy drove it
5 hours and I drove 2 , It turned out to be pretty close to what he said and
I bought it for a negotiated price.
