    Sold my 63 Notchback a few years ago. Sort of regret it but it just sat in my garage collecting dust and garage rash. Cool thing though is i sold it back to the guys who i bought it from and i know they will get the car right and make it badass once again.

    In 1969 . on my way to Korea we decided to buy my wife a new bug, this is at FT Monmouth Eatontown NJ. We went to The V'dub dealer, they had a 70 model Type II in that orange on the showroom floor, being from Texas, "Hook'm Horns I had to have it! Paid $2200, Bugs were $1600, for a Volkswagen, people though I was crazy...LMAO!

    Years ago in Eastern Europe my wife and i rented a VR6 golf from a really shifty hire place. We then proceeded to Drive across eastern Europe having a great old time ,especially when we got into a race with an Early Audi Quatro ,at 200KMH were playing cat and mouse for a couple of hours until the no limit stretch .ended. Even in Stock form they are a great engine.

    I am an old guy and love 1930’s thru 1970’s with V8 power. I have seen what people do with 4 and 6 cylinders now days and even like. I have always been a fan of the people’s car(VW). This is one heck of a car, that fast back is different but I like it.👍🇺🇸🤙😃✌️

    Talk about a unique project. Wow. Who doesn't love a built VR?!?!? The r&d you did with the head gasket/ block, o-rings and sump is very, very cool. I'd be interested to see a build thread with some more of the details if you've got one. Cool looking "wife's car." Thing will probably embarrass a lot of what people are bringing out. Great video! Like I said, if you have a build thread on the fastback or the VR in general, I would really be interested in checking it out. Take care and keep it real bro!

You basically took me on a tour of the R32, also explaining how it is your wife's car. I still have a few pictures saved of you and your wife's R32. Either way, nice dragster (in the video).

    Hi, I love what you did to the fastback!!! As a small boy we had a Red 1970 VW FastBack that was left by my grandfather. I used to take the car out when I was younger to drive it around and remember one winter with snow on the ground I ended up sliding against the tail end of a trailer and hitting the passenger side, which left a pretty long line on the passenger side. I’m curious is your Fastback when you got it was Red and a 1970 with a white interior? If so please let me message me back. What you did I dreamt about as a young man and wanted to always drop a VR6 and boost it!!! Love what you did!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!
