Shoooot, I can get a weeks worth of groceries in that trunk. If not an entire week, all that I can afford to buy, anyway...

I well remember the day when you wouldn't think of buying a car without checking under the hood, any more than you would buy a car without test driving it. In those days you had to change points, plugs and condensers on a regular basis, so you wanted to make sure they were easily within reach. Chevy V8's were clear back by the firewall, while their 6 cylinders and Ford V8's were up front and easily serviced. Now the cars don't even have distributors let alone points. I don't even know what half the stuff under a modern hood is.
The first electronic ignition I ever saw was when my wife bought a 1976 Chevy Monza with the 4 cylinder 'Iron Duke', I opened the hood, saw that big 'ol HEI distributor, took the cap off and thought 'I hope nothing goes bad under there 'cause I don't have a clue how this works.) We drove that car over 225,000 miles and that was the only time the distributor cap ever was lifted

When VW's first came to this country they gave a gold watch to anyone drove who one 1000,000 miles. They had to stop because they were giving out too many gold watches. In Europe they don't have the long stretches of highways we do.

I would like to know when production will start. Also, are they starting to make any parts yet? Thanks. Ken Sprague
