Back in '84, with the help of an old friend, I bought this piece of shit '65 fast back....flames coming from the carbs and everything....a lady drove up to me at the light and said, "excuse me miss, but your car is on fire" "ya, I know, thanks"....I was on the way to have them rebuilt...soon I was going to shows and wanting to learn how to fix them myself.....along comes Joe (LUMPY)....driving his cool '67 squareback...first date, the linkage came off his carbs....I knew it was meant to be; went to shows all the time, camping at Sacramento Bugorama (that's where I'm from)...over the next nineteen years, one '63 bug, '65 bug, '67 fastback and a VW tattoo later, I'm starting a new project....evidently this car was a pretty nice show car back in '83 from Napa, Ca ( I know I've seen this thing before)..now it sits in a field somewhere in Tennesee; I'm getting ready to go pick him up tomarrow...I guess it's just in my blood...gotta rescue him....later
