Huh.. I seem to remember seeing your ride over at the Yearone show in Braselton and I guess thats where this picture was taken? Cool ride though but wish you where around it the early days of yearone when I was showing mine there. Jesus the harassment sucked, would of been nice to have another VW there! Could care less now, seems PT crusiers have taken over the show...

my current daily driver.
I change up about every six months.

That is bad ass! |
thanks! 
I made some rear control arms from scratch and made it IRS to get it low without the negative camber. It rides well, like drop spindles in the rear |

Hey thanks! The front beam was narrowed 4". And I can't remember for the life of me what size the tires were. And I do tires for a living. That's pathetic!

Thanks guys, I'm pretty stoked about it. This being my first VW, I'm learning a lot as I go along. I am so thankful for this forum and the people on it!

Like his namesake, he is decieving. He looks all spiffy and put together on the outside but he is shot to hell inside. Weill, not shot to hell but he needs a headliner and some dash trim.
I have a pic of me taking him out for the first time in the snow. Not a great shot but a shot none the less. I'm usually behind the lens so I don't have too many of myself.
(I'm slowly buying stuff to do the insides when it gets warm.)
