    Looking to see if there are any other Canadian cabby-lovers here on VW Vortex. I'll start...

    ... I've got two of them. An '89 and '86. Here are some pics of the '86 (it's pink). Just today I did my very own seat swap (rear only). Previous owner put in some pretty crappy tan leather seats and no seatbelts. I fixed it all when I did the swap. Only took an hour to do and picked up all the parts at an awesome price from local wreckers from same year/make/model. I scored!!! Here's my beauty!



    Pics here if link doesn't work!!!

    I'm in the Toronto area. I've seen a pink Cabby around here but I'm pretty sure it had a clipper kit.
    Doing it right is overrated.

    My G/F would love it! It's a shame you aren't closer to PA, you'd be a shoe-in to win "Most Supportive" at her Breast Cancer Awareness benefit car show! (See link in my sig for more details on the show. )

    Nice car, I can be found under my cabriolet most nights in Mississauga. It's a labour of love

    ( and it's currently working no issues )

    Buy a set of Corrado steelies and have them widened, or find a set that already has been.
