If you don't use them, what's the point? If you don't use them are you just another collector waiting to cash in on the future or are you truly an enthusiast?

Dude the most fun is wringing the car's neck. I had a hell of a drive going from Sarge's place in Chino out to my place in Simi. Nice and cold out, and nobody in my way. I know everybody said "drive safe" as I left, but when you've got a 48 motor, what does s.a.f.e. mean? Sarge your street there at the corner is nice and long. I think the FK45 can stay put for a while ;)

I have a hard time deciding whether I like working on them or driving them more. I tend to drive a car for a while, get bored, and start looking for a new challenge.

I will admit most of the fun i have is hunting down the parts and i often get bored once there sitting in the garage or on a car.

it's nice to collect these items, but I believe it has no use to build a room in your house for vw stuff only, you guys should come together and make a museum  ;D ;D ;D ;D
