Far from youngest on list, and at 43 still feel like I'm 42. heh heh.
Actually I'm a child at heart. Or at least a temper tantrum just
waiting to happen.  ;)

I look forward to 50. It will be the be "the new 30" by that time.

I also look forward to some kind of amazing new titanium (or other)
knees, hips and a new brain, though brain should not make me smell
toast all the time.....right now I hear voices AND smell toast, but
could live with just the voices.....  ---- ;^)

For the record, I started my VW f'n around at age 14 with a $50 seized
up 58 Beetle, upgraded that (after a questionable rebuild by me) to a
40 HP from a 65, traded it for a Pinto Wagon (ICK! even with the V6),
then it was a 63 beetle (really liked that one), a 67, (was pink.
spray canned it black leaving 2 crooked pink stripes. managed to flip
it. can submit pic!) a 69 complete with road viewing floor, door bell
starter, and push button blinkers but oh such a nice factory rebuild
1600! ) then I got sensible with Volvo 140's. I missed having VW's for
years until just last spring.

Cheers,
