After clearing it with the Major General (the wife) and making arrangements with storage, insurance, and my local garage all that was left was to pick it up this morning. USAA roadside assistance provided the lift and transported the car to Boyle's Service Station, my local guy, for whatever repairs may be needed.
The car appears to be in really good condition it's based on a 1971 Volkswagen Bug and was built in the early 80s, maybe in 1983. It was running in 2010 and that was its last inspection year. The engine is a 1600 cc and also looks in good condition but the battery is deader than a door nail so no way of knowing what else may need work.
I have always wanted a convertible and never had one before so I am really thankful to my friend, Dick, for just letting me have this toy. Looking forward to getting this little beauty on the road!
