Hi All,

The nationals today had a lot of great cars, so I figured that I'd start a thread for everyone to chuck their photos in. You'll spot that I've taken a lot of photos of the Hopkins cars, but that's because they were fantastic. I tried to get a few from each of the different types, but I'm afraid I'm more a Beetle and KG guy, so there's not too much of the others.

I hope you enjoy.

This one was for sale...

CBB had this unfinished bus on display, and when you count the number of cylinders at the back, there are more than usual...








They also had an electric bug and an electric bus on display, here's the bug

Good to see CBB keeping "it in the family" with the Porsche 6 and not a Suby/ Commodore transplant/ abortion or whatever you like to call it.

Angel eyes on the Beetle.. dam it somone has been reading my notes on how to do it LOL!!

Shame the split Beetle wasn't completely original. Car looks fantastic and I could even live with the Porsche rims as they do look the good on the car but the exhaust system is just a disgrace on a car of that quality....

Umm dude that aint no POS monza muffler, its a rare Abarth 25/36hp 50s/early 60s period accessory performance muffler.

They were the ducks nuts of mufflers for Porsche and VW of the era.
