Article-I.D.: ihuxm.177 Posted: Tue Mar 22 10:12:01 1983 Received: Wed Mar 23 06:17:13 1983 Reply-To: prgclb@ihuxm.UUCP (Carl Blesch) My wift heard an item on WBBM (Chicago) business news Monday evening -- it said that an american company was going to import Mexican VW Beetles and "federalize" them, then sell them in the states for ~$7,000. Volkswagen's comment was that "there's nothing we can do to stop them." Since WBBM gets its business news from the Chicago Tribune, I looked in yesterday's and today's paper to confirm this item. I have yet to see anything. If anyone else sees or hears of this, send mail or post to the net, because I'm . . . A VW lover, Carl Blesch Bell Labs - Naperville, Ill.
