Hello, My name is Brad and I live southeast of Houston almost to Galveston. Last year I bought a 74 Super from a guy in Arlington, Tx. It turned out to be a little gem for the price I paid. I have worked on it non-stop since then and now am currently addicted to all things air cooled. I work as a firefighter for the City of Galveston so I have lots of time to work on my bug. I do all my own work on my car because I was a mechanic before becoming a firefighter. I am a new owner but a long time fan of VW's. I would like to one day find a 65 or earlier bug to completely restore. Right now I settle for driving my Super to the fire station every third day. I'd would like to get out into the VW community and make some friends and connections.

Welcome Brad, glad you found us!

Small world- we'll have to compare notes to see how small. I'll deny any prior knowledge in the interest of a better deal, though. And somebody will have to teach me to handle stick. Lessons available?
