Time of the year
Mine is safely tucked in a garage's (repair shop) basement, under a
cover, along with a few other cars its age - bugs, dune buggies, a
Citroen, a Fiero, a 914, a couple transporters, Westfalias and Unimogs (!).
I am fairly sure I hear it thump its wheels when I it hears me walk
down there ... especially when I go get it in the spring :-J
