Das Volks Vintage Volkswagen Gruppe

Bring some to Buffalo...

Me too! Certainly had a few close calls this year.

It emerges for another summer...

Looks like a dirty pumpkin.

Cool car, though. Linseed oil that puppy up!

Everything's looking great, Mike.

Looks great, Raj!

Took the bus for its first drive today. Started right up after quite a long wait and ran like a champ. gave it a once over to check if everything still worked and it cheerfully went around the Eddy and briefly into Pennsylvania.

A little dirty, but everything else is as I left it. Not bad for ...

Nice hunk of rust ya pulled out. New exhaust looks much nicer!

Looks like a fresh one, makes me wonder what's been hiding in the cavities of my bus.

Great metal work, by the way. Didn't realize that car had so many rusty spots!

Congrats on the running bus, Aud! Sounds great.

Excellent sweatshirt by the way.

Great work, Raj. Thing's looking great.

The chicken came first. Shoot, wrong question...

From other builds I've seen, the pan gets redone first. You can drive it around without the body too!

Looks great!

This thread is awesome.

Most recently I took a trip up to Buffalo, NY with my three brothers.

Ah, man. So close, so close...

Have you thought about hitting the primer with oven cleaner and 000 steal wool to see what's left of the original paint on the door?

Don't know how bad it was scratched up when it flipped, but ...

Awesome, Aud! Welcome to the wonderful world of buses.

Nice, Charlie! Starting to look real good, I like the body colored headlight rings.

Very, very cool bus. I love the old window/bumper stickers, and that interior... Beautiful!

Looks good , are you done or are you going to do the top half?

It's a 20-footer's 20 footer.

What can I say? I was the only car in my class!

Just a few more decades of attending East Branch Field Days and I'll be set!

I came, I saw, I conquered.



At a three car show...

Found him crossing a road while walking to my Aunts. I thought to myself, there has to be something I could do with him!

He's now safely released behind the chicken coop.

Didn't ask. He kept on telling me "speed isn't my thing", but I was totally unprepared to wait that long!
