I work at an Aboitoir. (meat works) doing various jobs. Sticking would have to be the best the warm sensation of the blood running down your arm is great. Before that drove interstate mainly brisbane to Adelaide and Melbourne for myself. Happily married with 2 boys and another on the way not sure of the sex yet. I cant remember how I got into vw's but have a 62 and a half, 70 Baja (project) and a 71 deluxe bus another project. My wife told me to make some room and get rid of some stuff so I built a bigger garage and put a double car port in now have room for 2 more cars. What will it be !!!!!
