[Vwdiesel] FW: 1990 Turbo diesel Fox 2 dr Wagon

[adamo robison]

pretty close to angel fire yes and your memory serves you well its twisty..

any other members around northern nm.

 so is there a good spot to research this fox transplant..... ive asked numerous times....i have very limited access to internet and cant really browse much...most access is by someone elses phone...
off grid and middle of nowhere.
...also just lost the deal on my 1.6na engine.
good place to look?


thanks

Hey Adamo, are you anywhere near Angle Fire, NM.  I stayed out there for a week once, 15-18 years ago, it was remote.  got to ski Toas for 2 days and Angle Fire mt. 3 days.
I remember driving those roads, no room for mistakes if I recall or off the road you went.
 
Good luck in your quest.
