    I purchased a 72 golf euro 2002 after watching it for five years setting next to a dilapidated farmhouse, one day I drove by and there was an airstream trailer park next to the house I drove up and was able to make a deal and purchase the car that had been sitting for 17 years for $300... I restored it and gave it to my son Ellis.

    sorry to confuse, that’s my 25k turkis automatic underside...I’m sure the car for sale looks just as good, if this car had a few changes it might make 45...here’s the seats now...and With these wheels and I cleaned the engine bay, is it up to 45k now.. The is a great car in the making...all Choices have not been great to this point, but there’s someone out there that this is the 50 K car for them and I wish him all luck in the world in selling it

    My first car was a 74 in 76 I was 19 I paid 4200 for it, my dad looked it over and said I had no Fing respect for money! I think that’s why I kept it forever, I refreshed that car and gave to my son Kane a few years back...
