what ever happened to.......

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

I don't think it will be noticed. Tomnotch is moderator of the Engine Management forum and he hasn't visited here for years. I volunteered to try to do the job, but never heard back....

That definitely IS Brian's Baja in that evilBay ad. The "6" cylinders is a typo. Seems an awful shame for him to sell it off. It appears "he" is not selling it, but a dealer of sports vehicles, from Corvettes to Jeeps.

Ummmm, not exactly. The text of the ad DOES state:
Number of Cylinders: 6
I would get Tim's joke and thought at 1st that it was one. Then I read the ad.

I say that the Classic Vinyl produced "Hedrock Fabrication" decal on the windshield proves that its Brian's car. :wink:

This is not the first time it has made an appearance on Ebay either. I guess he figured it was either time to sell it or tear it apart and make some changes. Since everybody here gave him so much crap about making changes he has decided on the first. :lol:

I can say that I have personally ridden in that car and I can also say it is a very nice car. I would love to have it in my collection. I need a bigger barn.
If you feel you are picking up speed you may be going downhill.

Officially sold and was told it went to California.

I haven't been on the forums enough lately to manage the busy off-road forum!.
I did volunteer to moderate the engine management section last year when Tomnotch went missing, but nothing came of it.
