Any VW Enthusiast ?

[kirksjeep]

I pulled up to Autozone in NL in my POS 91 MKII Jetta and some guy that worked there came rushing out to check out my POS.  By the way he was acting you would have sworn I had a nice car instead of a POS.  He invited me to join a new VW club that meets at Chesters in Groton on Wednesday nights.  I just wanted to warn everyone that I may be leaving the club soon so I have more time to devote to a club that appreciates my POS. 

All kidding aside, I may stop by on a Wednesday night to try and see how the club is.  They could turn out to be a great resource of parts and knowledge similar to JT4x4 is with Jeeps.  My Jetta has 141K so it may be helpful to meet some people that know how to work on all the quirky parts of a VW.  If anyone is interested let me know and we can meet up a roll over there sometime.

Does VW make a 4WD???   

[kirksjeep]

No 4wd, but they do have Baja bugs and the engines are used in sand rails.  A Baja bug would be a lot cooler then my POS.

but...... its a car.   if its a car, it needs to have a V8.  carbeurated.  loud. not an import.

[kirksjeep]

It's just a 1.8L 8V engine w/ 141K.  From what I know about the car, I am at least the third owner and it was in a front end collision at some point, the front cross member shows a little damage.  When it was damaged someone put a quad round grill, big bumpers and some GTI badges from a Golf.  They also put some 15" alloy rims and I'm sure it looked pretty good back then.  It's starting to rust out, and I am on the fence on fixing or getting another beater.  I'll probably just run it until it dies.

No, Had a couple friends withe the 5 cyl's, 2 jettas, a vw quantum and a couple audi's. They are BIGTIME sleepers!! Don't look impressive, but in the right hands, they can be NASTY engines!!!

I'll probably just run it until it dies.

Keep me in mind if the engine is still good, might be able to swap it into my Zuk.

I still want the vw thing.
