Cooler than your prius

Im sure some of you remember this one.....decided it needed a better home and someone to restore it the right way

Ended up trading for this the other night

1982 Jetta Delux
1.6 NA diesel
78k on it
blue interrior
tucked bumpers
Raceland Coils
Centra 8

In the short time of ownership i have been fixing minor little things and figuring out what it needs which isnt much

First night was a fun one, finished the trade and took it to dinner, then went to fill her up.....Didnt know the locking gas cap was a different key (ignition key did slide in but ended up breaking off) so i was stranded at wawa for a short time and then got a tow home

then after getting it home, i drove to harrisburg to pick up the spare keys that the po forgot to give me, wanted to get her in the garage and locked rather than waiting a few days to get the keys

here you can see the only real body issue

IDK, Prius is pretty bad ass.

I can dig the new delux!

once i fix or replace the spedo, not recording miles at all, then i can figure out what kind of milage its getting, the truck was over 50mpg when i first got it, and im thinking this one should be around the same

I **** getting stuck behind a prius in my tdi... All I can think is that no one makes fun of my car and I can make it up hills when i want to.
