I think he had it up for sale afew months ago.

yep it is Jamies and man did it need work,but he has driven it to work almost every day since he got it back from me. It still needs a new carb as the shafts are wore and leaking like a seive on his and it needs a fuel sending unit, both should be here by next week. I have another friend that has a real nice rust free on but he wants $6000.00 for it and it needs some work and a paint job. How are you Neil,havent talked to you in a while?

I am looking for someone who knows what they are doing in the Peoria area. I have swirl marks and halograms (i think that is what it is called) that i would like to get removed. Any recommendations on who to go to and who to stay away from.

Take it over to my place. Ive got everything to fix that. (if you havent already) I live right by East Peoria High school

I'd be interested in knowing/learning how that ghosting is done.

[hubris007]

2 weeks in Italy for this trip, I have to come back again at the end of the month to meet with a supplier

I run across 1 or 2 siroccos everytime I am over here, they are not as common as I thought they would be.

I just wanted to say, "hello". I have been lurking here for a while. I live in Springfield temporarily, work in B/N, and my permanent home in Chicago.

I have seen a few of the members here on my drives.

My daily driver is a Black 2010 JSW TDI purchased on 11/20/2009 - with just over 125K - its a highway car - not one door ding, however, the clear bra is marred from road debris - the salt truck spray, summer bug seasons, semi truck driver pissed off at his life so he rides the road edge in the left lane to through rocks, etc.

[CECJetta09]

Hey guys add 1 more from Springfield!! I'm at work but when I get home ill post up some pics!

Where did you get the clear bra installed?

[Someguy3331]

Hey does anyone know if greenMK4 still has that cabby for sale? I've been trying to get ahold of him on here for a friend of mine that is interested and wants to buy it but I don't think he's been on the vortex for awhile

[1.8t gtilove]

[Someguy3331]

I'd be interested to know why H2O VW guys are so ghey for painters tape.

[Someguy3331]

Well it's been awhile but we finally got it home, pictures are from before the windshield flew out across the interstate

[thirty2valves]

Yeah, we can have a gtg out here if people want to, more than welcome to cookout at our place and we have a kickball field close by or mcnaughton park is not that far away if people would rather disc golf, just let me know

Just got back from southern worthersee tonight, it was a great show, the small town it was held in was completely over run with vag, I'll post some pics of the mk3 gtg, I haven't uploaded any of the full show yet, the gti ran and drove great the whole trip not too bad for a 17 yr old car with 125k+ miles on it that was packed with all of Aleisha & my crap for the trip and I drove it hard through those great twisty smooth mountain roads, it was a great experience, got so much free crap from the vendors, hope I can go back again next year!

[1jarhead2]

Looks like it was a great time. Das Speedster is down as I blew the rotary up and crashed the lower birdcage on a freaking manhole cover while going to a cruise in in Pekin. Great streets they have in Pekin.lol. It will be back in time for Funfest in effingham. Cant wait to see more pics of SOWO.
