Time with the Zonker
The short time that I spent with the Zonker 16v Turbo GTI prototype from VW Sport was enjoyable. The one thing I learned from the experience is that working on a one of a kind car is nothing is as it seems. I found that searching for parts and information took as long or longer then working on the Zonker. In away I was sorry to see it go but as with everything time moves on.
Long Time DeLorean Owner
Having the Delorean since 1998 and not using much but maybe 100 miles a year. A highlight owning the DeLorean is when it was entered in the BMW Euro Auto Festival in 2001. It won First Place in class and Crowd Pleaser awards. Still to this day when driving the DeLorean around it a tracks a lot of attention. It just shows that the design was way ahead of its time.
