Hi everyone. Just been looking at some pics posted by Chrisradioman. Could i ask the name and modle's of the following vehicles. Hadn't even realised VW produced vehicles like this. Many Thanks
Here you go Mangled, http://thelatebay.com/index.php?topic=122.0 this topic will tell you how to use photobucket
Must agree That Karmann (now I know that's what it's called) is pretty cool And Yes 72wilma I have a serious case of the VW's. : Deep down I always have had an affection for bug's & buses. My Aunt had an orange and white, split screen bus & whenever she visited i'd would ask my parents if i could sleep in it out in the drive. (they always agreed) And my uncle Alec was a right bug man, over his life he must have saved dozens. It's was meeting all you guys last week that has stir'd up those VW roots ;D
One more of us and one less of them!! ;D ;D Glad you enjoyed the weekend mate I know we all did I must admit when we first bought the Pig I had never seen a karman Ghia and now they are one of my fave vehicles! They just look good!
the new series of wheeler dealers are doing a karmann ghia in the next few weeks, discovery channel.welcome btw.
So are you on the search for a bus now then mangled dude? Theres plenty of people on her to guide you in the right direction
Thanks everyone for the welcome. Looking forward to the KG resto on wheeler dealers rickyrooo1, that is certainly one to watch. Not a bus para been chewing over doing a bug one day. Or a KG if I was ever lucky enough to come across one. Though a bug would suit me better what with my tiny little puppy dog Boston.
You dont need to be lucky to find a KG for sale. They come up pretty regularly! http://www.volkszone.com/VZi/showthread.php?t=733816
