One word, stoked! 
Picked her up on Saturday up at Quakers Hill, NSW. Had to fly up, met Dad up there, then we drove it back together on Sat night and all day today (Sunday). You may recognise this beauty from here, it's Mark's oldie, and now my new baby.
Waited until later on tonight to head down to the local Safeway for some late-night parking lot shots (how cliche). It's a bit damp, and dirty from the big trek back to Melb, but she handled it so nicely. It's an absolute dream to drive. Very happy with it.
^ Represent Focal. I need a VWW sticker, someone point me in the right direction?
Light was pretty restricting, hence the lack of happy snaps.
Short-term plans include a spray-bombed and rusted out hood. I'm heading over to a self-serve/pick a part soonish, so hopefully I'll be able to pick up a MK3 hood to serve as my 'canvas'. I had some sweet dali-inspired stencil(s) ready to roll. Maybe there I'll try and grab a grill to do a badgeless conversion. Some roof racks would be ideal too, I have a BMX/Fixed and need to transport them (mainly the BMX, but the likely scene will be two bikes).
Some point (soon, i hope...) I'll slam 'er, and then maybe get some widescreen steelies happening. Who knows!? But in the mean time I have to afford petrol, being a poor design student does that to ya hey.
Cheers,
Cam.
NB; Gretchen? Where'd that come from? Typically, I wanted a name beginning with 'G', as that's what colour the car is. Wanted a female name. All the female names beginning with 'G' led me back to haunting memories, or people who I no longer like, except Gretchen. Think 'Gretchen' from Donnie Darko (Jena Malone). Hot.
