I just recieved a fax and I've been invited back to Wolfsburg (with a couple of my students) for another one of those VIP tours of the factory and musueum like I did a couple of years ago! I'll be in Germany (mainly Stuttgart, Munich and Frankfurt) from 6/6 to 6/20 with a group of students and another professor on a grant from the German government....so I figured, what the hell...it's only a "train ride" from Munich to Wolfsburg (compared from getting to Wolfsburg from Massachsuetts). There are a couple of VW "nuts" in the group of students who are going with us, so we are all going to visit VW-halla.. I understand that the museum now is selling NOS and repro parts for vintage VWs, so the '56 beetle should have some new goodies when I get back. According to my list of VW shows in Europe, there's a VW show at the Porsche factory on 6/8 as well! I'll have a full report when I get back. Ric
