Rare '76.5 "Super" Scirocco

[danws69 at earthlink.net (Dan Snow)]

It's not *this* specific car, I mean the combination of price & MKI....

I haven't found one close enough to grab yet, I was just ranting about
wanting a MKI - and as I'm sure BigMac & Daun can verify, I whine about
wanting a MKI a good bit.

In the case of this particular 76.5 model, I don't think they were
originally sold anyplace but California.  It was emissions problems with the
Zenith carb (not to mention the horrible driveability) that forced VW to
introduce FI here before the rest of the country.
