[T3] Introduction of a newbie to the world of the Type 3

[Mike Fisher]

We are from Redding, CA but now are near Eugene, OR.  You should be able to
find seats in Sacramento.  Go to shows/swaps there and join the nearest
active VW Club.  I have some here and have shipped seats to Sacramento on
Greyhound.  My best set shown here.
