Talking 01 techno blue

Hi all - I am new here. I have a 2001 techno blue GLS. She is getting a little long in the tooth but I love her too much to send her away. So, I'm rebuilding her and fully plan to drive her as long as I can buy parts

Right now she has 110,000 miles. I'm thinking to install a west wings body kit and re-paint her soon. Right now, i'm getting ready for the ECS timing belt kit, then new shocks and struts.

Hopefully I won't need a new motor any time soon - that would suck

Anyway, hello all

- Tom

Well, since parts are still availablef or 50 year old VW's, you should be able to continue driving the car until you die.

BTW, 110,000 on the engine is barely even middle aged if maintenance is done correctly.

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.
