Bought
this car about 8 months ago from a fellow on
Vortex. It lived its life in Cali all its life
and the last 2 owners were both Vortex
members. I bought it sight unseen and had it
shipped to Florida where I live. Right away I
loved it, it just was a fun car to just go
driving.
First things I did to it where just repairs to
keep the car running good and or get it
running better. 1st week I owned it I drove it
2+ hours away to a drag strip to just run it
with bald tires, no tach, pretty much stock
1.5L, and messed up timing it ran a
17.8@78MPH it was a funny sight. Still I
never lost to any car that night, since I was
racing air cooled bugs the whole day.
Since then I did a lot of body work and
welding on the car, plus fix any problems that
popped up. I added my own little touches to
the car, to just really make it my own.
The car gets a lot of attention and people
love seeing it take out reflectors in the road
or throw sparks when it hits a bump.
Over the
8 months I put over 13K miles on it, and drive
it to almost all the local VW meets around me,
which are all over a hour away. I took
it back to the drag strip again not too long
ago, just for fun and ran a 17.2 so I'm happy
with this little 1.5L. Once the VR6 goes in
and I add a little dope to it I hope to be
well into the 12's. |
