I hear that!  I like good deals.. I also agree with what mr partsfinder said 
about saving vw's and such.  That Caddy he advertized would be a perfict 
base for a nice 16v conversion... all you need is a 16v rocco to throw into 
it and wolla, your done :)  Leave it all nasty with faded paint and you have 
the ultimate sleeper!
Possibly people would be less anal about this if mr partsfinder would 
introduce him/her self to us and sign his/her posts with their name.. so it 
is less like a buisness posting, and more like a member of the rocco 
community???
