I bought my 1st hottie VW parts at Powertune in '79 - '80, I remember talking to Steve over the counter, and buying a full set of Powertune Flaired
Guards for my '69 Beetle.
Still have a catalogue here somewhere, it was a cool shop.
Looks a bit different these days

Steve,
'Were they simpler times back then? were the Sullivans on TV?"
Cars appear to be driving in Steve's right ear and out of his left!
Cheers,

Hi
I do still look like that, but you can see the damage that too many beers etc does.
