very, very cool. congrats "caretaker" (still need to change your ID

). those are going to look great in your car.

btw, VKGers, we even had nigel talking about blacking out his trim when we were at Bug Jam. be sure he gets some more encouragement in that area.

:agree: big a$$ engine comes next. i saw the look on his face when i took him out in my bug. only a matter of time.

he offered to drive mine on the dyno after i threatened to piss myself and ruin my seats

. only a matter of time now until its killer engine , show paint and a trailer just like ole Laz. The trailer part not the other stuff.

Wow, those came from a salvage yard? I was breaking my arm patting myself on the back just finding a '97 GTI doughnut spare tire. I now need to take a closer look at salvage yards. Very nice!

No trailers for the hard core. I can't see Nigle putting his on a trailer. I think he would drop the engine on the roadside and rebuild it before he put it on a trailer. He is a "Man-Up-N-Drive" award winner. And carries a nice stash of spare parts along to keep it on the road. Just ask the Valdosta group that needed a fuel pump n the way to Tampa. We now call him "Caretaker". What good are fine leather seats if you don't put your @$$ in them. :agree:

i need to do better about the man up and drive thing. if it werent for that gear it would be alot easier. maybe now after my first year i can calm down and enjoy my car a little more than back and forth to work. :agree:
