I am a long time VW and Porsche enthusiast and a long time drummer and DJ mostly to 80's music,
I have a restored 67 Cal style VW beetle and a restored 73 Porsche 914 ,these cars are an extension of me and my personality. I love turning wrenches and tinkering with cars like these especially when working with new parts. I have been drumming since the 80's and will occasionally set up my DJ system and play along to 80's glam rock and involve Karaoke as well.
