Own a piece of scirocco list history WAS: RE: [Fwd: FS: 83 Wolfsburg Scirocco]

[Nathan Fredette <nate@firespout.com>]

Just a side note:  This car was formerly owned by former "what ever happened
to" list member Josh Clark, one of the original listers.  This car's got
scirocco list history up the yin-yang.

It's me, the guy selling the car.  I've put up some more pictures, if
anyone's interested.

The last one is of the rust above the rear axle.  The surrounding metal
appears to be in solid shape though.  I think a PO was doing something
around there and just scraped off some of the undercoating or something.
