This just makes me more determined to help find a cure for cancer. The American Cancer Society is looking for volunteers for a new study that will commit those involved for the next 20 years. Men and women ages 30-65 with no history of cancer can get involved. The goal is to enroll 300,000 people in the study across the U.S.

Call 888-604-5888 or email cps3@cancer.org.

Just heard about Axel yesterday. We will sadly miss our German VW friend. Axel was an honest man, and very dedicated to the VW world. He was very fair and pleasant to do business with over the past 20 or so years. Our hearts go out to his daughter and his family. The VW world has lost a good person and he will be sorely missed. Jim and Diane Lucca, Interstate (VW) Used Parts

P.S. Wonderful picture of Axel and friend! Thanks for sharing.

Start accumulating evidence of asking price and actual sale prices on similar cars, and start talking REPLACEMENT VALUE and being made whole.

Use Samba ads, and eBay listings/ completed listings as a guide. You can also peruse Edmunds classic car valuation.

Some other good ideas:

just to add, because it hasnt been said. You need to talk to your insurance company, not the other guys insurance. They may try, but make them go through your insurance. Your insurance will pay to have yours fixed, or total it out, or whatever, and will then bill the other guys insurance.

A couple of years ago, I had Kinkos cut my Calculus book into binders to split up the sections used between Calc I and Calc II. I wonder if they'd do that with this, but make a copy of each binder so I'd have the binders made up of the original manual to keep indoors and the copies made to keep in the shop.

They'll still do it. I did the same with the manual to my Ford tractor. Keeps the page open nicely when I need to set the book down to wipe.

A couple of times a year I will take my big blue book and go through it a few pages each night for a couple of weeks. Sort of like comfort food for my brain.

Rusty Bus Richard and Dawn got married with a Bentley Bus manual at the alter in Arizona. I think there is a clip of their wedding in the recent Bus movie. I supplied the Bentley manual for the festivities.
