My first car was a 70 something VW rabbit , i don't rember the exact year BUT it was the second year that rabbits were made
( and YES that did mater , there was 3 different clutch cables , 4 different starters , 3 different starter solonoids , 2 different sets of piston rings , etc... , it all depended what month of what year the car was made ) , origanly bought in Germany by an airforce officer , brought to the states , federlized ( made leagle to drive in the US ) , and given to his little brother , this kid drove it for a while and when he went to collage his parents sold it off . I was home on leave from the USMC , i was going to be stationed in Cali , i snaggen this little car for $750 , thought well it will get me to Cali ( hopefully ) and a month or 2 later it will kick its little wheels up and die .
How WRONG i was !!!! This little car got me from Memphis Tn. to Camp Pen. Cali . ALL over southern CA , to Vegas , to ensanda Mex ( a few times ) , to west yellow stone MT ( over the contentinal devide ) , back thru Kansas , back to memphis , and i drove it for about 2-3 years after that . MANY MANY MANY adventures were had in that little car . My wife talked me into selling it off . DAMN I WISH I STILL HAD IT !!!!!
