Patterson Posted December 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 lol, nothing about me is skinny. PS saw the car at polaris best buy about 2 weeks ago. My nephew works there. I was having him put miles on it since he stays local typically. The last thing I wanted is something bad to happen and be two hours from Columbus.

1fynz Posted December 11, 2010 Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 That place is like 30 sec from my house! I always drove by there and wondered what was going on with that VW. Glad to see someone picked it up. Good luck on the project! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see someone picked it up. Good luck on the project! I still need to go back and show it to them. That and I want to see Camel again. Super cool people, they just didn't want to spend the time or loot on getting it back on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patterson Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 I was down there Friday night I think. I go into a blind frenzy when I buy parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patterson Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 And done. WTF will be gone this weekend. Since thanksgiving I logged 2253 miles, finished the exhaust, two alignments, two oil changes, averaged a high of 39mpg. Today in the freeway, logged about 27-28 in town. Not including the coil overs (already had from the Helios), and wheels and tires (traded my bbs's) I spent $1109.75 including purchase price. This thing is dead nuts reliable I imagine I'm gonna regret trading it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
