Future plans include new paint, and boost.
The paint will either remain black, or go
Green. I really love green Rabbits, but I'm
not sure if I want to paint my current Rabbit,
or buy a new shell and paint that.
Boost will be turbo. I already have almost
everything I need, but I'm away at college
right now, so I don't have the time to get it
in.

Bought the car a few years ago from a guy
worked next to me. Got it for $1100, and it
was near mint, plus it already had a 1.8 8v
out of a '90, new tranny, lowering springs,
and some ugly wheels. When I got the car, I
didn't even know how to change the oil. Then I
discovered the Vortex. I read and read and
read, before I ever even got a screen name,
and I learned so so much. Now, years later, I
am building cars not only for me, but for
others as well. I do all my own wrenching and
love every second of it. |
