I have been looking for those Fahr. stickers at many shows in the past few
years, but was not going to pay $4 for one.
I still have the one I got when I bought my 88 Cabriolet, it is now proudly
on my Vanagon windshild.  That advertising campaign got them back on the
road to where VW is today.  Only my point of view.
