With the pauter heads its good for the 1/4 but not so good for the street.



This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

Yeah. As 66deluxe has said. I would have to have it completely rebuilt for it to be able to comfortably do 50000 kms every year in my baja. Might be a good base to start with though.
