Today I saw a 69 ( maybe 68 ) Squareback at the Target shopping center. It was white, automatic, had factory A/C vents on the front, was stock looking and appeared to be in good shape. I saw it parked in the lot and then when I was leaving it drove past me. A white guy with longish hair was driving. Anyone know this car (or guy)?

Yes, I do know the car. I purchased it a few days ago from the original owner near Charleston, SC. I have been pursuing this car for about three years now, and I finally talked the owner into selling it to me. I took possession of the car about a week ago, and it was stolen from in front of my house Tuesday night! The only description I have of the guy that stole it is from my neighbor who said some long-haired white was eyeballing it earlier in the day.

Just kidding Razz

I know the guy. He lives on Boulevard and has a whole fleet of VW's. I've stopped and talked with him a few times, but right now his name doesn't come to me. He moved here from Asheville over the summer. He's got two squarebacks (the one you saw and another ratrod), a tan baywindow with a black bra on it, and an early 70's ghia. He's a painter, so you'll probably see the baywindow around. I'm trying to get him involved with us.
