Volks, 2 weeks ago I conquered Old Fort Mountain on I-40 in NC in my 81 vanagon............looked for a t-shirt stand at the top and definitely felt like some sort of gold star should now be worn on my cap! Took at at 45 MPH in 3rd gear...........7 mile 6 % grade............. I thought Saluda grade was bad on I-26 ( about a 3 mile 6 % grade) but Old Fort puts it to shame!!! Adam P 81 westy (2 of them) 74 beetle 73 Transporter (new!!!!!!!) Total resto in progress Vanagon Partsmobiles
