A quick road trip.........

Today we went to Nova Scotia to pick up Pete's new wheels. He bought a '91 VW Jetta GTX. His first car ever.

And here it is. We had to go all the way to the Annapolis Valley. Almost in Upper Clements. Klaas & Feije and Brian & Stanley came too.
The one thing it really needs yet though is an engine. It has a Flinstone drive in it right now. Down the road it will probably be upgraded to a 16 valve, lots of hp engine. Right Pete?I think Pete is the happiest guy in Rustico right now.
It is a good feeling to be able to make someone happy......And for the rest? Home sweet home. Oost,West, thuis best!

That must have been a fun trip. 6 excited guys and one hot car. I'm sure, if it wasn't against the law, that Pete would have ridden in the Jetta on the way home. :)
Glad you found "the one". Have fun with it. I'm sure I'll hear it racing down the road soon and I'll be saying "what was that red flash?" :)
