Recently, Sam and Susan’s build story was featured in the Sierra Vista Herald, an Arizona newspaper, discussing their experience building the Mk4 Roadster, taking it to car shows and cruise-ins, and driving it around town.

Congratulations Sam and Susan on the car show win and the newspaper write-up!
