I have driven VW's in all sorts of weather since 1964, and don't have any signs of frost bite. Last few years, though, I do park them in the winter in favor of a 4wd pickup, due to the 3-5 miles of unplowed roads I have to drive every day when it snows. -- Russ Wolfe '66 FB MT '71 FB AT '65 Bug (not running) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
