Thanks everyone... I got back early this morning. About 3am to be exact. After no sleep for nearly 37 hours, I was to the point of collapse. Called my boss this morning and told her that I just got back. She told me to take the morning off and sleep. Went into work and then to school after that. Just got out of school about 40 minutes ago.....

The Volkswagen....

Overall I am pleased with the car. The engine appears to be in OUTSTANDING condition. There is a valvecover oil leak The tranny is a 4 speed. It is difficult to get into 1st gear everynow and then. Kinda reminds me of the WRX tranny ... Shifts very sloppy. My other Rabbit was the same way though. The paint needs wet-sanding. The tinted windows look like a 5 yearold did them But still... The front right wheelbearing has $#!t it's self.

This weekend I am probably gonna "go to town" and replace as much as I can on the car. Also I'm gonna try to do the wetsanding on it... I'll post more as it happens
