A little blurry, but you get the idea, the whole left lane (except the truck) was full of VW's in some shape or fashion.

19 Buggies , I think I was told.

I'm hoping to have some of the 90 odd pics that I took at Dubs up on my web site soon.... I'll let you know if you are interested in having a look....

A fantastic day, even though I had to roll start my car every time I wanted to go anywhere (bloody starter packed it in on Saturday:cussing - but I still came along). Was great to see all the old fav's along with some new vehicles. How mad was that trike with the fuel injection and twin turbos:o!? 0-100kmh in under 4 secs! Crazy!😀

Well done to everyone who won trohpies - some classes were difficult to pick.

Well done to the organisers too.

I won the hard luck award this year:cry

My engine let go just as I pulled into the Pub. It threw the conrod straight though the case of the engine and made a hell of a mess:cry The engine is totally stuffed and I will need to replace it with another one.

A huge thanks to 11Cab & Thook (Their Kombi won "The Dog" award) for towing me the 100klm trip home:kiss and everyone else who cruised back with us to make sure we made it home safely.

Now all I have to do is find myself some $$$$$ and a replacement engine.

Well I had fun as usual looking at all the VW's at the pub🙂:thumb

My old friend Carmen, from Nambour, really loved the Ghia's...but is realistic and is seriously considering a beetle:thumb Her son was a member of the Bad Little Buggers a few years back I found out and he nearly went yesterday cos he still has contact with a couple of guys in the club...small world!!!!

It is so hard finding people when you don't know what they look like of they are wearing sunnies!!!! I caught up ever so briefly with Wes, Tazz, Y2K and Brad. Judy, Rob and Fish had started their run home by the time I got there🙁

I'm trying to remember how to download pics from my camera:jesus

Honestly it was so easy last time I did it!!

When I saw Jeff's Cool 56 I was thinking I hadn't seen any other Flat 4's from Sydney??? When I ran into him later I found out he was hlidaying and working in the area and had only just found out about the Dubs at the Pub event, so he went along...going home with 3 trophies he said he woulkd make room for on the trip home😎

The was another beetle there recently painted in the same pink as Cool 56!!! Jeff was talking to the owners when I ran into him...all was very cool😎:thumb

Same colour only🙂

Cool 56 is one sweet ride that definitely gets driven:thumb

Cool pics! 😎

I think amongst that lot you managed to get most of our club members (except me:bounce) oh well - I'm not surprised - I'm sure I came runner up for dog of the day!:P😀

I have just updated my website with pics from the day - feel free to have a look.

Hey, 72twincab - glad to hear that you made it home OK (even if it was on a rope behind IICAB!) Let us know how you go with the replacement engine...
