After working on my parts car today, I stopped at the gas station to fill up. Anyway, while I'm pumping gas a white beetle, with 5-lug wheels pulls in. When the guy gets out, we start talking. This is a project that he's been working on for 5 years. It's a '66 with a 2.5 engine and 5-lug Porsche wheels.
Really nice guy, couldn't quite understand him completely, some kind of foreign accent, eastern European, I think. Anyway, it was nice to meet a close 'relative' out on the road... -- Rob Attached image(s) |
