A couple of days ago I sold my 1967 BAJA and all my parts to someone that will keep it going.
I just got too old to properly maintain it and our other vehicles and the Wife and I won't be towing it behind the Van RV as it is for sale also.
I can't begin to tell you all how much I have enjoyed TheSamba and all the help I have received through the years.
You Guys and Gals are the greatest, the absolute greatest.

Marvin, It's nice of you to say goodbye instead of just disappearing without a word! Remember that VW's are best for running errands around town & get lots of attention/compliments/stories. _________________ https://imgur.com/user/FisherSquareback/posts

Well Marvin, I would say to enjoy your life no matter what, and thanks for saying Goodbye. Myself, I tried to leave VW's 10 years ago, but they wouldn't leave me. The BMW vintage car group turned out to be more than a bit self possessed, I.E. less fun, so sold that car off and bought a Thing. Happy to be back, and loads more fun. We'll keep looking for your eventual reappearance. |

Just because the car is gone doesn't mean YOU have to be gone too! You still have friends here! And you still have knowledge to share. _________________ Mother Nature is a Mean Evil Bitch! |
