It’s an old Mk1 or 2.

Yes. I was with my brother who is not a car guy. I was pointing out all the little differences between this car and my car that will be arriving this week ��

Funny... when I read this I thought would be me as I work across the street at Hollister.

Guessing you are in the area, I'm in Gurnee. I have a MK4 and currently building a coupe if you would like to connect

I was visiting my brother in Libertyville. We spent the weekend and went to the Bristol Renaissance Faire. I’m building a 289 USRRC that should be arriving this week. I’m in Plainfield, Indiana, on the outskirts of Indy.

So.... this is still a mystery! I bet Sten knows who it is. He knows everybody!
