[urq] Audi urq assembly teams

[Brandon Rogers]

Well, unfortunately I don't think Karl has the time or energy for anything
that involved.  He's of "retired age" (no offense meant to others out there)
but still busy with personal stuff.....but you never know....
What I had in mind was more casual, like "war" stories and old photos over
dinner or at a GTG......Despite his vast experience, I bet he still didn't
see much of the later urq's except for trips to Germany, as we didn't get
them here in the States.....

I think our best hope of getting Audi to listen is through the Q Club, err
Audi Club....but that's been brought up here fairly recently and didn't go
anywhere.  Direct contact with parts suppliers would seem most logical for
some "NLA" parts-maybe they're just NLA through Audi.....
