General: The Homeless VolksRide

I am looking for a new home for my 1958 project. Yesterday had to be one of the most disastrous days of my life. It was not of global proportion, such as the destruction of the World Trade Center, but on a personal level, it was indeed an act of terrorism. Had this been pre-911, I would have found myself at the Promenade in Brooklyn gazing at the glory of Lower Manhattan's skyline to calm my soul after what happened yesterday. Over the past few years, I have been working on my car project in rented space across the Hudson River in New Jersey. I rented shop time from a VW specialist who has been working on VW's since not long after the social program Kraft durch Freude (KDF) had been adopted in Germany. Four year ago, when I purchased the car, I went on a quest to find as many NOS (New Old Stock) parts for my project as I could. Everyday, I had searched the web for people parting from their precious holdings of New Old Stock parts. Three years ago, I found a completed NOS set of rubber floor mats for my 58 project with the correct VW part number on them (113 863 712A). In the past, some of my parts came up missing, which slowly increased my overall fustrations. These were parts that I took off the car 2 years ago. They had been shuffled around the shop or lost only because the owner took the small boxes (while I was away for one month) I was using to hold my parts to complete his own personal storage agenda. He wanted to store his shop parts in an uniformed wall of Natural Springs water boxes - Go figure! If that was not enough, when I seen one of my rear NOS mat hanging across a latter cut in half, I fell apart. I few off the handle. Bad words had been exchanged and out of pure emotion, I announced that I would be leaving the shop. Thank god for Craigslist, I have found private garage space in less than 24 hours. The deal is not final, but I will hopefully have a private space for the same price, minus paying Holland Tunnel fees when I return to New York City. Some times bad thing happen for a reason. I'll have my own key and can work on my project more often than Saturday. Rock onward, minus the NOS part.
