new to the site. have a 1976 passat and was wondering are there many around the scene. drive it a few times a week and love its originality. hopefully i can pick up a few tips here on how to keep it going smoothly.
needs a bit of work but is roadworthy and rust free.

will post a photo when i get one tomorrow

passat great to hear about another leading the way instead of following the herd. I am also driving a 76 sedan as my daily and love it but be careful they have a habit of multiplying within 12 months ive gone from 1 sedan to 3 and 3 wagons :)
