My 62 Bug

Post by dshux »

Ok I made the cardinal sin when buying a car, the previous owner was moving home and claimed that its papers were packed away. Not wanting to be unreasonable and I knew where they were moving to I thought it would be ok. Its almost a month now and still no sign of any papers. However I am not going to give up on the bug (aka skye) as it is just to good to be locked away in a garage.

At the least with it not being on the road I have had the time to iron out some of its glitches :D

I have contacted Errand Busters to help out with its reg, apparently they are able to sort out the almost impossible.
