its alive
« on: August 04, 2008, 10:24:17 PM »
After 5 years of storage I finally went out and picked up the beetle. The registration was still in Leanne's maiden name. A bit of hassle because the storage policy was in her married name. Anyways it started and drove home on its own power, shit gas and all :o
(hey Bruce). I have to do the brakes and clean up the carbs this week and it needs a good cleaning because it's dirty. Anybody ever have the interior of their car oxygenated before, it's supposed to make it smell like new again. Oh maybe it's time for a new interior , anybody know any interior guys?  ;)

they can create ozone by running electricity through glass.  The machines are available for everything from hospitals to morgues.
