Here is a picture of my 1983 Volkswagen Quantum (notice the fly-ass two-tone paint job).

I've owned the "Q" for about 2 years and well "inherited" it from my grandfather. My grandfather has owned the car since '82. The car is in pretty good condition considering how old it is.

A couple more photos:

There isn't much for me to put up on the page right now, but I have plans to get more photos (possibly some decent quality photos) and I have a few things I would like to start doing for my car. There is a definite plan for a paint job this summer, and some fixer uppers. Basically, I don't plan on doing any mods, because I like the car as is and don't have any real desire to be trying to juice the engine. So most fixer uppers will just be getting it to run a bit better or look a lot nicer.

That's it for now, more updates and info soon.

I PURCHASED A QUANTUM JUST LIKE THIS ONE. I AM REPLACING THE DRIVE AXLES AND STRUTS NOW. THE BODY LOOKS GOOD AND THE 1.6 TDI SOUNDS GREAT. I WILL POST PICS LATER.
