Re: 14 year old build
How much for the fake sheepskin seat cover 
on a more serious note though, do you have the hooter trim for that steering wheel?

Re: 14 year old build
That Variant could even become a project. Doesnt look too bad.Especially if it has papers.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.

Re: 14 year old build
That Variant would make a very nice project, all the trim is there
And it *looks* relatively solid....
If it's too low, you're too old
