I started my new career as a Matco distributor, and there's a seta on the truck, if none of my customers want it, maybe I'll use it  |

It's getting time where we should figure out when we can all get together and go over our rules and expectations for the fun-filled 2012 VW season. We cannot survive without everyone's input here....for it is everyone in here...that helps make this a NON ORGANIZED GROUP of VW Freaks....so basically, when we going to get some damn wings????  |

Glenn, the 2012 rule book is almost completed, lets see...wing night-check, drink a couple o beers-check...damn, that's all I got.
Jeremy, my route is Mechanicsville, East end, and some stuff on Broad st & Blvd area. My buddy Stan does Midlothian, I told him to stop by in see you guys.
Scott, I wish I could head up there too, not sure I could sell enough tools to cover the diesel bill though...unless maybe you're in the market for a new triple bay toolbox |

You guys should make an effort to meet with C3Vs at El Patron in Chesterfield tomorrow at 2pm. A lot of effort goes into putting on a good show and your help would be appreciated!!!
Bugn...you sold the fastback, huh? Man, that was a nice ride. I'm starting to get the clicks when I think about not owning a VW. When I look in the garage and see an empty space it gets worse
