So, what ever happened to.....(long)
Out of the wood they come. Course I remember ya Harder.
Well the car still sounds mean. That's about it, the motor is cooked and
its been in storage for about a year now, rusting away. The last good
pics I have are from the 03 ND show. Looks good but was going through
two quarts of oil every fuel stop.

Who's this guy? ;)
Nice to hear from ya Shannon...
You probably barely remember me, but it's hard to forget meeting
you at ND back in '01... apparently one of the last *real* ND
gatherings.
Sad to hear this, cause I was all excited about coming back out there
someday soon. Maybe all you left-coasters will have to put together
a *REAL* show too... come out for Cincy this year and we'll show ya
how it's done! ;)
I won't forget riding in your car with the 276's barely able to keep
an idle as we sat at a traffic light after caravaning to get donuts
and stuff on the way to the show... oh the memories.
My mk1 is now alive and mad as hell. The car has a completely new
attitude with the rebuilt 2.0, cams, yada... always sounds p'ed off.
I love it!
What's going on with your 16v... have I missed anything?
