Ok, so she's only about 95% complete, but I realized that I hadn't posted these up since I took them just a few days ago.

Actually, the A/C system does really work. Still has a good charge of R12 in it as well, so it really, really works.

OK, so your car looks better than mine AND your A/C really works. Oh, and you live in a warmer climate than I do. I'm not depressed, I'm just envious.

LOL. Keep in mind that as far as the body and most of the interior goes, we bought the car as it looks now. The engine bay is all me though. Well with help from the wife.

Also, we may have a warmer climate, but with that we also have 80%+ humidity on a daily basis. Nothing like 95 degrees with 98% humidity to just zap the life right out of you the instant you step out of the A/C.

You'll get your car where you want it some day. My wife just had to kill hers (not on purpose) to get more of what she really wanted. An it's still not perfect. The damn engine is still giving me fits, but I'll tame that beast soon enough.

like i said on the "tex....SWEET!
i love the first pic, god i want a 16V 'rocco again.
on a side note, why do you have gti rims on the back of your rocco?

Post by **Calimus** » Fri Apr 09, 2004 12:58 am

I knew someone would notice the rear rim. It's actually there because about a month ago, something in the road punctured the tire on my teardrop that would normally be where the snowflake it.

Even worse, I just have the one snowflake on there so it looks really odd. Should be getting the tire replaced on the teardrop this week (just been to lazy to haul it down to a tire shop).

hehe the snowflakes belong on the Cabby. I was in %$tch mode and I said I could not show my car with her current rims-he said "tough, live with it". So I appealed to different logic and told him he couldnt possibly show his car with one snowflake on the rear.
Guess who is getting a new tire, and guess who is getting her snowflakes back

There's some snowflakes for sale about an hour and a half from where I am, been thinking about going down there and picking them up. Guy wants $60.00 for all four.

$60 isn't bad at all if they are in fair shape. I'd say go for it.

Yeah, Saturday is shot already cause my mother in law is arriving this afternoon. I did a brake job and some rear hatch struts for one of the guys I work with last night and he dropped a hundred bucks in my lap this morning so I'm thinking it may be a sign or something.
