    This is a true story, posted by one of the guys on the http://www.speedsterowners.com forum. I thought is was funny enough to share here….

    There’s great VW knowledge over there by the way. And a great group of people. They gather 40 or 50 Speedster replicas to each Carlisle show.

    Here’s the story:

    “Got the car home and in the garage Friday evening. Took it for an easy run Saturday afternoon and parked it back in garage. Sunday morning I went in to the garage and was knocked back by the smell of fuel. I immediately opened the garage and pushed the car out to vent until I could find the culprit. I check the tank, cap, seals, vent, etc…About an hour and half or so….got under car, scratching my head. About then my wife comes in the garage and casually says (oblivious to my dilemma) “next time you mow the lawn, do you think you can put the top back on the gas can?”

    It is something I would do…at least until I started paying someone to mow my lawn so I could have my weekends back!

    But this wasn’t me. I am, however, protecting the name and reputation of the real culprit.
