I don't believe it. Really. I wouldn't ordinarily believe it either .. the original owner never had the muffler replaced. She had the car until 1996, and is a friend of my mother-in-law so I'm fortunate to be able to ask her things like this.. It's definately OE, has the VW logo embossed in it, and has enough surface rust to be original. I suppose it's *possible* that it was replaced in the two years between the original owner and me, but I'd be very surprised .. things just don't rust out here (unless you live on the coast) ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
