What a ripping day. Great turnout. Bit of a show too with cars parked on the grounds this year. Lots of familiar faces, quite a few new cars, lots of sellers and lots of great stuff to be had.
Congrats to the organisers and thanks.

Type 34's everywhere. This one, a two tone blue which looked real nice but got away early, lovely red one we see a bit of and a rat on a trailer which sold real early.
Common as muck!!!
Green KG was better than the pic.

Brad you are right about the Type 3 Karmmans they are all coming outta the wood work. Be nice to have as many as we can in our own area at the DOVW.
Had a great drive home. That a bit of Tofu on my rear vision?
The way traffic should be....Splitty in front, bug in the rear view.
Tom with the Cream Split worked out what the guage on the right does on the way home. Thanks Tofu for the helping hand.

That was such a cool pic of the oval in the rear view..and the splittie through the windscreen 👍
It was a fantastic swap meet....and the weather couldn't have been better...well the sun could have been a tad less hot for is poor Melbournites coming out of winter...we weren't ready for it...A few of us might be just a bit burnt 🙄

It was a great day, plenty of socialising amongst the wheelin'n dealing, and a refreshing variation to the more usual "car show + swapmeet in the background" format. I actually thought this was a privately run event (having been mis-informed a couple of years ago) and was slightly surprised to see it run by volunteers from the VWCV (of which I'm a member). Many thanks to Eric & all the other VWCV members for the successful organising!!
G'day,
Great pics everyone!!!, makes me very homesick seeing them all. Jenz, that SA visitor belongs to my Daughter and Husband and is fitted with 1916 engine, thanks for the pic, when I saw it I relized its nearly 18 months since I last saw that Splitty.
Cheers, Ian.

Hey Ian...... it's such a beautiful splittie....and I probably walk by your daughter and her hubby a few times as I did the rounds of the stalls and never realized ... do they come onto the forum at all?
A couple more picsof the splittie ... I must have one leg shorter than the other by the looks of the rear window shot!! Mmmmm I did like it a lot
😀

Whos was the 54 beetle? How much out of interest.
T54
Any heart lights?
C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.

...no the seats were from non forum people.....didn't get any contact details...anyone else get details????
I think I might have seen that blue split parked out in the front carpark at ADI yesterday morning at about 9:00 when I was doing a delivery there.
I'm sure it's the same one, looks damn nice too:thumb😎

G'day BajaChris,
That would be it, Rhett (PHAT BUG) works there (he test drives ADIs new Bushmaster Troop Carriers) and is looking after it for his sister and bro-in-law.
Yeah it is a nice one.
Cheers, Ian.
