    New Guy in Seal Beach CA building MK4

    My kit just arrived for Base MK4 w/IRS and I'm starting the adventure. I'm looking for Other So CA owners to gather info and advise from as well as see examples of completed cars. Please send me a note to introduce yourself at [email protected]. I look forward to meeting some locals and sharing the experience.

    Cheers

    We have a breakfast every other month or so @ http://www.maniac-mikes.com/ in Upland. We will be having one this month on the 8th. Sometimes we have 10 cars, other times it can be only one or two. There is always lively conversations about cars and perhaps a bit of bench racing. Come North and join us, it's well worth the 50-60 minute drive.
