The next house we buy is going to be out in the country, with a big enough
garage to store several vehicles.
We're pretty much out of room at our current place.

I would buy a vehicle if I see it, like the BlueBus, but it would be to save it
and pass it on. Unless it was real sweet.

No kidding Denis, my two keep me real busy.
I don't need any more.
Well, I did see a sweet Single Cab while we were on vacation.
Almost turned around an knocked on a door.
Almost...
Everybody needs a truck right?

I only have Murray. I sold our beautiful Ghia to someone who adored her and
only wanted the one car and was going to use it as a daily driver. I have my
hands full keeping Murray on the road and I don't see why I would keep more. I
need all you other guys to keep all those vehicles and boneyards because I will
need the parts.

Snobs in the VW community? Never! Now there are some real (*%^(&(*^ heads,
but have never met a snob in the VW community.

when i sold hershey a 54 chevy 2 door post brased my finger tips, solid body,
near perfect floors COMPLETE with motor, tranny, everythign was there, just
needed to be rebuilt. straight 6's are cheap enough to rebuild, i looked into
it, talked to a friend of mine that builds early iron for a living, and almost
bought it. but something about vw's had me going back. since owning the 77,
then the 69, now the 58 and 66 parts bus, i've learned, there are alot of great
friends i have that share the vw hobby, in the early iron hobby they are all
snobs. granted there are some snobs in the vw community as well, but i just
don't see myself ever getting out of vw's.
i vote keep one of each, sell the rest, and enjoy them. oh and you were
bitching about the t3, a friend says it best, the factory made them a certain
way for a reason, when you go and change that, you create problems. ;)
