...Bada bing, bada boom and fuhgetaboutit!
I vote that Theron makes this a sticky. This is the best feedback sting ever written. You know it's good when Theron chimes in with a karate kick to the throat.
I'll second Todd's motion. All in favor, add something pithy to the "sting string."
"Vinny" say's this here thread will run longer than any previous Nardi horn button thread
alan was it vinny or tonnnnnyyyyyyyyyyy
Let me cause a bit of trouble...Carl Davis is a SEAGULL! And for the very few of you who don't know what a seagull is in webspeak....he comes in, makes a bunch of noise, craps all over the place, and flys off never to be seen again, at least not as Carl Davis...oh by the way my name is really John Doe.....(I don't think we have a John Doe in the group do we?)
Naaa Tonnnnnyyyyyyyyyyy is Management.
...if not Tony, then maybe ChristoPHA!
Oh I'm sure John Doe is his real name, whatever happened to John Doe, he seemed so knowledgaeble and his information was so reliable. For those who have been around awhile you know I'm kidding.
Aren't you Jennifer? This is like a soap opera.
Jennifer who????

Did you guys watch the movie The Weatherman with Nicholas Cage? Talkin' bout camel toe.....
Ricardo you are correct. That's what you call "camel toe".
I had a vintage & thought it was great.
Q: How many SOCers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: All of them: Two thirds to drive it to Carlisle and the other two thirds to post about it.
Q: How many two thirds are in a whole?
A: Varies according to Oban titer.
Q: How many wholes are there in SOC?
A1: Same as the number of holes in the sock, or
A2: Same as the number souls in hock.
Q: How many here have slipped off their official jacket?
A: At least one, evidently....

Pass me the chips man.....
Why would anyone bring this stupid post backup
One Rolls minus a grill ...priceless. And who hasn't had the honor of owning a similar oil bathed VW motor at some point in their life ?
I should sue Tommy Chong for using my biography as the plot for this film.......
David---this stupid thread was started almost 4 years ago----why resurrect it??
I love my Vintage---it's my Speedster for life.

Everyone thinks that was Tommie Chong when in reality it was Vince just before he got drafted, lol.

A four year old post, and somehow I get dragged into it.....
Ooohh the humanity!!

Might have to make it a class action suit, around these parts.
Mine had a Mercedes grill and the top cut off over the front seat so the chauffer had to sit out in the rain.
"And who hasn't had the honor of owning a similar oil bathed VW motor at some point in their life ?" -- Alan
At that point in my life, I thought they required a tank with re-refined oil that drip-fed into the motor. Works okay with a large caliber IV set. The alternative was to wipe it down with a rag every few miles and squeeze it back into the oil filler. If they'd made Bars Leak for oil back then, it woulda been goin' down the street spittin' rat pellets.
I wondered for a while how hard it would be to just convert it into a two-cycle engine. At that age creativity is highly valued over a mundane fix, like new gaskets.

I want the 67 Ragtop.......;-)
Listen up folks. I had a 2000 VS that I paid dearly for in that I sold my '93 Wrangler (totally cherry....24K miles) and a 2000 Buell S3 for it and did this willingly. The car was purchased locally (no, not in Tennessee, in Illinois). It was a total gas from day one. There was some sorting to do (always is, right) but once on solid ground, I totally fell in love with it.
Had it not been for my ambitious plans, driving to Knotts, I may have kept it longer. I had in invitation from the late Jim Ward to join him on a quest to the left coast (2004) but believed that I wanted to make the trip in a different, less maintenance-intensive car. And I did the next year, but solo. I hope that somebody in California will put my fears to rest by driving their VS to Carlisle. Is this a "gauntlet?"
Somebody on that same coast purchased my car, a resident of Malibu, and I hope that she loves it as much as I did. She won the car on the third or fourth day on ebay and nobody bid after the reserve was met. I was happy.

What John said x2.
I have driven my VS twice from Hot Springs, AR to Carlisle plus two trips to the Smokies for Tail of the Dragon. NEVER had any trouble.
I have put 12,000 trouble free miles on it and it's a '07.
A week from tomorrow I'll drive it to Morro Bay and am confident I will have a great experience.
you cannot go wrong with the cars made by any of the respectable builders. Some have more bells and whistles than others but they all are a blast to drive and they all draw the same attention on the road or at car shows.
The jerk who made this post was never heard from again and was, no doubt, a troll who has never sat in any Speedater. Too bad the thread was resurrected but I wanted to add this as an offset to the Troll's
two cents which is about all it was worth!
