Das Volks Vintage Volkswagen Gruppe

We've backed off some of the features on the site - and reverted back to the platform as it was about 3 years ago.
For now, it is on the same server it has always been, just with less features (which is fine).
It seems stable as of now and has not been dropping.
If anyone has problems, please let me ...

Folks, I am very aware that the site has been acting "stupid" the last month or so.
After Tom had some issues, I too had issues, and we upgraded to new "performance" database from Ionos our host.
That didn't do the trick, and the site regularly detaches from the server.
I've been back and forth ...

Awesome! Can't wait to see everyone.

In a related but separate issue - I got (so far) 28 funeral homes on board to put out boxes for JTCF.
We're going to do the "Holiday Hearse Haul" on Friday, December 12, 2025 arriving to JTCF at 11 am.
The "proecssion" will be meeting at St. Charles Cemetery ...

I started getting it too...
Working on it now.

Hi guys! It's been quiet around here...

I can check.

See you there!

I'd say either back to The Good Life in Massapequa, or head over to House of Haunted Hamburgers in Farmingdale.

I'm down for any day next week.

Katch posted on FB last night saying they had no clue this was coming, and that on top of the beach now being for residents only they were told to cancel their upcoming music/shows for the remainder of the season. They said they'll be laying off the staff, not sure if that means its over for good or ...

Seems quiet, we on for tomorrow?

Sure. Sounds like a good time. See you there!

Awww.... Poor PBB...

Where do folks get their flywheels resurfaced?
Mine needs to be done. I put the car back together so I could take it out east yesterday but it’s going to have to get done.

Place in KP works.
See you Thursday.

Sounds good. Hoping the weather is more cooperative this year!
As we get closer we can coordinate if we want to do our own potlock or something.

I'm in - have the application and the form all ready to go, but have to go to the bank to get a check... How the hell is it that they only have checks as a payment method? What is this, 1970?

I know Bill sent his in already, Carol did too.

I believe Denis did, and I invited Andy, not sure if he ...

Ok, Dennis just "guilted" me!

I'll be there.

Doing the form today.

What are we thinking for tomorrow?

I don't remember the Italian place in BayShore...

But I recently went to "The Good Life" in Massapequa and it was good... Might be worth checking out.

Everyone except Mike.


Yes, yes... I was not in green. I wore... red... I don't own green! lol

Was a good time, same wait as before but now that I knew to expect it, I didn't seem to care as much.

Just glad the rain held off. It was a slow parade - I grabbed a shot in the middle, so I can't ...

I can do Wednesday or Thursday - I'll keep an eye here.

See you there

I’m in, if it rains I won’t bring the beetle out but I’d bring the Eurovan.

The weekend of the 27 would probably be better for me personally.
I plan to go to Terryville and taking off two weekends in a row would be tough.
I don't really have anything in May - so in honesty the Kickoff would probably be better for my schedule. But if we do it 1) we have to register soon, and ...

I can't make it
We've been having work done on the house after some water damage/black mold and have to be here for when they're doing work.
