I'm back! Well, actually...

I'm not. I was going to send a message to a couple people to say "howdy", but thought I'd just sign on the list again for a week or so and fill in some blanks...
 
I got my scirocco running again in the summer of 2004, with the major help of William and Cristine (aka Mr.&Mrs. Techography.net) via the donation of a transmission. Shortly thereafter I realized the need of either rebuilding the stock fuel system or replacing it with a standalone system. Being enrolled in a college that is biting off chunks of my wallet/savings/credit at $230 per hour, neither was an option. So I sold the scirocco, including all it's bits and pieces to a gentleman in north Alabama for the nice sum of $2,000 in September of 2004. 
 
Since then I've been vehicless. That is until this past saturday, when I procured a 1995 Isuzu 4wd pickup. For free. Hoo-Rah! Look out National Forest, here I come!
 
I currently have no plans to ever own another VW. (Well... maybe a tube-rail dunebuggy one day.) While I enjoyed my scirocco, and moreso enjoyed the likes of listers Ben Harding, Daun, Brett Van Screw-it-I'm-not-even-going-to-try-to-spell-your-name,William & Cristine, and many others, VW's became more of a headache than a hobby. The next car I build will probably be something with a V8 and rear-wheel drive. I'm thinking FFR '65 roadster...
 
So, thanks for all the help, and the good times. If/when I can return the favor, let me know!

P.S. For those who might be interested, I'm getting married July 1st...
