Here are a couple of my favorite photos from the past year or so..
Started stripping down my 1956 hardtop beetle today. Needs a bit of work, but isn’t that bad, I mean it wasn’t in a rollover and isn’t completely rusted through. Hope to have it on the road for the GCVW which is August 14th… hmmm
Nice Oval! Wish I was traveling to some of the shows in Europe this summer. Unfortunately I’ll be sticking on this side of the pond. I borrowed this photo from this site here.
Nice oval.. borrowed from : http://overdosebug.skynetblogs.be Those guys in Spain seem to know what looks good.
When I was down at the VW Classic we had a chance to go to ISP’s little BBQ. Lucky for us we liked VWs and BBQs! Turns out Anthony has a nice little operation going there. He also had a few choice cars for sale.. 3 ovals and a very nice low light convertible. I recall the ovals were from $3900 for the 57s to around $8k for the 55. The Ghia was around $17k.. but only that weekend. They had loads of parts for sale, lots of cool stuff. We had some good food and a few drinks before heading back to the hotel for more drinks. Did I mention there isn’t much going in Irvine after 7pm?
Hey, check this oval.. mighty nice! I’d like to build my oval like this. Old school cal look style. I grabbed these from: http://www.radikalbugz.com
One of my 2010 goals: BEETLEBALL 25 - Vancouver, Canada To Ensenada, Mexico.
1500 Miles. July 25th - 27th, 2010. This trip happens over a period of about 25 hours. Straight driving. Just stopping for gas. The challenge, other than the drive itself will be getting my car on the road. As of today I have 203 days. On the list: a 36hp engine. Rust repair. Wiring. Paint.
