Taco Tail Deliciousness

I started rebuilding my car almost four years ago after it had a dashboard fire and another Rennlist member sold it to me. It is finally finished....my OEM aerokit that has been sitting on my garage shelves, since before I got the car running, is now installed. I finally own my dream car. Thanks to all my fellow Mk1 aero owners for providing me with a variety of desktop backgrounds that have kept me dreaming of today.

Thanks most of all, to my wonderful wife, for putting up with my car habit.

It's been a long road for you, Mark, but your perseverence has paid off handsomely for you. A great looking P-car has arisen from the ashes of that fire - hard to believe it's been 4 years already. Way to go!
