<< what up with the orange van? >>



Want to buy it?

It's a 74, 1.8L with dual carbs, 4 speed manual camper. It has a dent over the rear right wheel and rust around the windshield. New canvas on the pop top and Subaru XT seats up front. Engine and tranny completely rebuilt. Carbs leak a little because they're just plain worn out. As far as running... it's almost as reliable as the Jetta. I'm asking $2000.

<< Nice. What does that 2ltr put out HP-wise? >>



115hp @ 5200 RPM. 10:1 compression.

Is that a ding in the right rear in picture #3??


<< Wagons as rapid, agile transportation,but also as useful as their shape will allow have a heritage, in my own crazed noggin, going back to the Aston Martin DB4 "shooting brake". When I first saw one of those as a kid, I thought, "now THAT'S a wagon!" >>

You would probably also like the Volvo P1800 ES
Wagon.

No. That's poor lighting. It's early morning and the sun is very low and behind me (thus the slight shadow of me). I'm standing between the Jetta and my '82 Rabbit. The light is reflecting off of the Jetta, onto the headlights of the Rabbit and then back to the Jetta in a way that looks like a ding.
