Craig W. and Family Pick Up their Mk4 Roadster

Posted on May 17, 2024 by Nicole Smith in What's New

This morning, customer Craig W. from Pennsylvania picked up his Mk4 Roadster with his family. They even brought baby Myles along —starting him young! We love seeing a family dedicated to sharing car enthusiasm. Craig’s wife, Debbie, mentioned she expects Craig and their son Jared to be deeply involved in the build, likely disappearing with the car as soon as it’s ready to drive. She also hopes she and Jen will get some seat time too. Now it’s time for Craig and his family to make this dream a reality one wrench turn at a time. Congratulations, Craig! We can’t wait to see your build progress. (Left to right: Jared, Myles, Jen, Debbie, Craig, Dave, and Matt)
