On the Subject of ME

[Rodney Noriel <rbn@corp.cirrus.com>]

Currently I live in San Jose California, right in the center of the silicon 
valley.  I'm 32 and work at Cirrus Logic.  My VW ownership history is as 
follows: 72 VW type 3, 82 VW Scirocco, and a 90 VW Corrado.  Most of my 
friends, comrades, and girlfriend cannot understand this VW thing I'm into, 
but they have never owned one.

I am currently the Bay Area coordinator of the Corrado Club, and my 
Scirocco connection is that 82 Scrirocco in the driveway.  That car is the 
most loyal thing I've ever owned (10 years of service).  Right now she is 
striped, and sitting idle in the driveway, but I have some major ambitions 
for her.  Right now I've installed a Corrado Dash in the car, obtained a 
leather interior, Corrado front and rear brakes (not installed yet...need 
adapter plates), and will soon..(long soon) be molding carbon fiber door 
panels and trim parts (ask me about this if you'd like).

Due to $$ problems, I'm still waiting on a motor.  I hope to obtain a G-60, 
but am also considering a crossflow 2.0 or 16V (any experiences with any of 
these would be helpful).  With the Corrado dash I will be able to utilize 
the complete G-60 wire harness, but the cost of a new G-Lader might prevent 
this (long term cost).

BTW, If you'd like to see pictures of my carbon fiber round headlight 
conversion on my Corrado see http://members.aol.com/cjwright.corrado.htm

This can probably be done on an  Scirocco II also

PS  If you live in the bay area, the Corrado Club is meeting at Alice's in 
Woodside on Oct 26,  we'll be cruising off to the coast after.  E-mail me 
for details.
