Default I went from 1973 VW to a 1998 WRX

Yep, been cruising around in a 54hp 1973 Type 3 VW station wagon for the last 12 years. Just wanted to say Hi and introduce myself, I'd take some pics but there's a big thunderstorm happening right now.

Welcome John,

I'd be suggesting there's an encompassing smile enveloping your head.

Bit of a change ?
