Hello!Found this place through VW Vortex -- wanted to say "hello" rather than just lurk!
Here's my girl:
She's a '95, and I loved her right into the ground; been sitting there since summer waiting for me to scrape together the $ for dealing with a blown head gasket and new tires and brakes. Can't even roll her back into the garage -- it's full of my soon-to-be-ex's stuff. "Soon" being down to a month or two, finally. Time to start planning a rebirth for the ol' Gray Ghost!
I've used Precision (over behind Best Buy, etc.) for engine work in the past. They'll do the bits that make it go and stop, since I can't swing a wrench to save my life. (Unless someone has a better suggestion, that is. I like 'em, but for once I'd like to do this right.)
Doors I think I can tackle, so once the garage is free it'll be time to get some windows working reliably! One of the backs just doesn't work, the front pass squeaks something horrible, and the sunroof only slides, not tilt. Y'know, typical Passat stuff. (Heeelllo Bentley. And Vortex "DIY" searches. And, probably, "HELP!" posts... )
Oh, and some of the speakers cut out. Time to chase that gremlin down.
Lots else on the wish list, from 6-spoke Audi wheels and less of a 4x4 look to a leather swap one of these days.
First, gotta meet everyone. When's the Feb GTG? I'd like to bring my camera along, if it's okay....

Changing soon, I understand. So "welcome" works for you, too -- welcome back, that is...!
Agreed on getting her running first. Miss her terribly!
