Let's see... I'm 50. I won't list all the cars I have had but the VWs??? 79 Westmoreland Rabbit (POS) - threw a rod on the NJ Turnpike in 1986. Left it. 81 Scirrocco - Nicest VW until the pully fell off the end of the crankshaft on the interstate going into Burlington VT in the winter. 81 Westy sits in my backyard protecting valuable ice cube trays. 83 Aircooled 7 pass. Gone to the junkyard in the sky. I tried giving it away. 84 Waterboxer semi-weekender - Still out there somewhere I suspect. I always really liked that van. Car I wish I still had? 1977 Toyota Celica GT. Man that car would run. Fit like a glove. Not very good in the snow. We traded it in on an 87 CRX. Should have traded the Scirrocco (see above). tim in san jose
