getting a wee bit emotional going through the Scirocco’s paperwork and finding all the receipts from the parts I bought for it and work I did on it so long ago It’s this weird feeling where it’s something that means a lot to me but simultaneously it doesn’t make sense for me to keep it.
conspiracy theory: bsky doesn't want to add private accounts because their sad brigade of terf moderators would melt seeing their userbase post like that
according to Facebook, it's been 10 years since the Triumph's maiden voyage in the US! How time flies.

Just in case anyone here is interested, my ‘85 VW Scirocco is for sale. Low miles (40k), runs and drives great, tidy interior. Paint is bad and it has some dents and scrapes, but is entirely rust free. Comes with loads of spares. $4000 OBO, in St Paul, MN.
