Flashback Friday

This week, I thought about my beloved 1978 VW Rabbit.  We called it "Stonewall".  Not sure why, but that was it's name. 

I loved that car, and drove it until the engine blew and that was all she wrote.  But it was a great car during my first years as a driver.  When the Energy Crisis of 78 hit, the 'Rents sold our cool Chevy van and bought the Rabbit.  I'm pretty sure it got about 50 miles a gallon.  The stereo in it was awesome, and the only drawback was that it didn't have air conditioning, but it was a fun car.  

I sure wish I still had Stonewall.
