I built this car back in 1990 and if fun were Money this car paid for itself. I raced it a lot at the local drag strip(PowerHouse) here in Panama City Fla.Gainesville twice. I was laughed at a lot at the local drags (only vw there) until they seen it run. At first I was just a somebody but after awhile when I came to the strip, everyone knew my name and the "Little Red VW" -andyvw.com |
