[V8] FYI - 1994 V8Q for sale - 1 of 50

[Scott Baumann]

V8Q volk - here is a link to a 1994 V8Q for sale - it is located east of
Columbus, OH.  I am taking a pass on it - thought someone here might be
interested!  I have included below, the dialog & info from the owner.   He
sounds a bit like a dealer, but is selling it as a private individual.  Good
Luck!
