I got this idea from another non-VW related forum, but it sounds like a bit of fun.
The idea of Picture Grab, is for someone to nominate a particular VW picture to be found. Whoever finds the picture, and posts it in their reply, gets to nominate the next picture to be found. Hopefully, some cool VW images will be found, and you might learn something too along the way.
Whoever nominates, cannot put up their own picture.
So....the first thing I'm looking for is a slammed, low light Karmann Ghia. If you're not sure what a low light is - do some research. :thumb

If it passes, I want to see a Double-cab with straight gates...

never has there been a double with smoothsides... at least im pretty sure of it...make me eat my words tho if you can... 😂 I looked pretty hard tho.
Anywho.... while were all trippin on that..find us a double decker splitter... and before any of you come up with that one with the pinched splitty roof on top...MWAHAHAHA..THAT ONE DOESNT COUNT!!! 😂... its made of a split and a bay.. so not a true splitty. :P 😀
Lets see what we come up with then eh? 👍

That's the idea....find what you can.....so we're still looking for a double cab with smooth gates.

So....as I asked for earlier, but it seem to get lost above.
Now for that Hot VWs California Look special from the 70's with the police car and the bug on the cover. Kudo's if it's of you holding it. Who's got a pic?
