26th Anniversary

[nealtovsen@yahoo.com (Neal Tovsen)]

MMMmmmm....Lime green with plaid interior! 

I would (and I'm totally serious here) pay big money
for a clean '76-'77 in that color with those seats.
Katie likes green and has a wierd plaid fetish. She
flipped out when I showed her the dealer brochure from
'77. She'd take that over a diamond ring any day,
'cause she's cool like that. :)

We seriously considered changing our '77 from Pearl
Metallic, but decided to keep it original to avoid
problems. By the time I sanded through all the crappy
aftermarket paint, I might as well have changed it
anyway. Oh well. I like Pearl Met. too.

Congrats! You got your first Scirocco when I was six
months old!
