sweet I bet it goes like heck huh!
 

Since it weighs about 5 pounds. Looks like a fun winter car.

For some reason
 

that car looks very familiar?

77 was a very good year for those cars.
 

in 78 they went back to a 1.5 in the Rabbit because the 77's were so quick. That car is light as a feather, no cat (could be run on regular gas when it was still sold), and still made in Germany (79 was the first year in the US.

There is a brake line recall on those cars; make sure it has been done!

And why would that be?

Welcome to the world of CIS ;o)

keeewwwl Kevin!

yea, just wonderin

thanks for the tip. i was gonna inspect the brakes this week

It looks like
 

a car that was around here locally, but I know you're nor close to me, so it doesn't make sense.

Was it for sale on the Vortex maybe?
