| OK, names Rod from Bristol, current rides are a 52' Chevy truck, and T5 Transporter, always been into rodding but had little delves into the VW scene, past two years have been loosing interest in the rodding scene, but the cars still rock me big time, had allsorts over the years, generally with a kustom fill, 53 and 54 Chevys, 57' Buick, 37 Ford Cabriolet, 39' Ford Coupe and now the truck, also into Harleys and have a LD 150, and theres a 72' Beetle in the garage, i reckon the only full fendered Beetle running on Cragar 5's, last few years really got into the T4 Forum (Bristol Area Rep) where i have had two T4's and now a T5.....

Hey Rod
Sounds like you've had some cool cars, got any pics of them past and present?
I love my T4 as a daily hack... being a 2.4 non turbo diesel it's a bit of a slug but it seems to let me chill out more when driving and not feel the need to rush around everywhere like faster cars i've had in the past have. and it pulls anything 
which T5 do you have? |
