Re: vw support

["Gary A. Huff" <scirocco86@home.com>]

Yes, but is there a market for this? Remember, the A1 vw's also have a
very bad rap from all of the westmoreland built rabbits that crapped out
on people a few years after they bought them........ Also remember, the
reason why all the A2 and A3 stuff sells so well is because it's
available everywhere. You don't see many A1's let alone trying to find
parts anymore is a nightmare. Just a year ago I used to be able to go to
a scrapyard and see a few 16v scirocco's for the picking, now I'm lucky
if I find anything gasoline.
