The problem with VWs are that they are perpetually cool and they do not rot away like Amero-nippo-anglo boxes. When was the last time you saw a Vega? and ask yourself why that is so. Come to think about it those 300ZX s are pretty rare, dated, and doggy looking now. The interior of my '83 Westy looks better than my moms '93 Lincoln, the premier American Luxury Auto. So, I guess that VWs are worth rebuilding rather than just hiding them on your front lawn up on cinderblocks. By-the-way....are there any products out there that can help my wasser boxer get through emissions inspection with regularity? It seems that in New Jersey they have implemented a much stricter emissions test; the kicker is that if you fail the inspection a second time your car is essentially condemed! That means it can not be sold in this state, ever driven again in this state etc....Just think of the implications, I may be forced to buy a new Honda or something.... This law will put a big crimp in my VW lifestyle. So please help! My Westy is a 1.9L wasser boxer, a new engine at 102,000, and currently sitting at 156,000. HELP...jg Rutgers University....'83 Westy, '92 Passat
