Happy New Year everyone. SITES BACK UP!, thanks David..

I did get the news my site is down, we are working on it so in the mean time just email me at rtcobra@comcast.net.

I don't get on the forums much due to the simple fact is that you guys are keeping me plenty busy. I have been in the shop almost 7 days a week trying to make sure I keep up so I don't get on the sites as much as I'd like.

Just so you know I do have a good supply of the VW switches I use in my turn signal switches and I just ran another batch of the drop trunk boxes and I'm also setting up in my home shop to continue making the throttle pedals.

I want to thank everyone for all the support I have received over the 20 years I have been doing this, you guys and gals are the best.

Thanks.

Russ

Russ,

Been recently touting your original MK I curved trunk bar kits on BAT. Good to see you still alive and kicking.

This feels like a reunion of sorts. "Hi Russ!", "Hi Bill!"

Yep, some of us old timers are still kicking around! Hi Russ...Hi Bill...Hi Olli :)

Russ, I don't know when the last time was that I got a car in for body & paint that didn't have one of your turn signal setups on it. I'd say easily 9 out of 10 are equipped. Same with gas pedals...if it isn't a Coyote they've all got yours ;)

Thanks to my friend David Borden the sites back up, now I just need to o a new site that is easier to change then this old one. :-)

I do need to delete some items and add new ones and of coarse the prices have changed. Had to raise the turn signal price for the first time in about 15 years. I have a new switch supplier and it's working well but is more costly
The new system is now $295 plus shipping.

One popular item is the mk4 drop trunk box which is now $115 plus shipping.

Good hearing for some of my fellow old timers, lets just keep the wheels rolling and headed in the right direction. :-)

What is the URL, the old url still doesn’t work for me.

Have you thought about setting up a shopify store or something simple like that? It’ll take a lot of headache away.
