This was the first VW Spectacular I went to, #6, way back in 1989.
picture isnt that clear.
I think that is steve muller above daves left shoulder in the RH pic.
Chris, that was a classic night, remember the little trolley following behind, with the battery to power the famous semaphore:o
There might be a repeat performace from the famous MR BUG next year...
I will have to scan my pic it shows my Semiphore at FULL extention
You wont be allowed to put it on here. Will violate the public decency rule.
You've been saying you would put it on for months. I thought this might put your words into action.
Those were the glory days of ClubVW Illawarra. When every second member had a quick car, most of them turbo. Everyone was young and no kids to hold us
down. The good old days before the 'rotary scandal'. The club president of the time, Dave Rogers, had mulholland rear guards I think, but
not the square lights up front. (merge threads)
Was getting confused about which Dave there for a sec. but thought it would be Birchall
Only one semaphore??:jesus That's a bit ordinary:P
a man with 2 semaphors would be extraordinary! and popular!
A man with 2 semiphores would be called stupid cause he could be that silly from P...ing one
someone wanna explain?
Looks interesting...
In the early days of Valla they used to havea fancy dress parade. And they used to have a Mr and Miss bug contest that guys n girls would get up on
the dance floor n strut there stuff.....
I just devised a proper Mr Bug costum up from various bits of a Bug and got dress up in them...
Got dress up in the Mens room and when time for the parade came around i went out on the floor and had the trophy all to myself.
I had flashing lights beeping horn and a semiphore that stood to attention placed in just the right position when i hit the micro switch.
Gene and Dee Berg WET themselves when they saw my costum.
Hey Fraz is that a mirror picture ???
LMAO it sounds amazing Dave. I'd love to see it.
So is the hub cap for modesty then?:P
its 2 pictures placed side by side in a scanner.
Hey Dave, you might need a 12 volt battery this time to get that semaphore to full extension these days
I had to MOUNT the semiphore onto something and the tail pipes as well.
pop a viagra pill into each cell of the 6V
LOL I'd like to see that:P
Ive still got all the gear...
for a repeat performance one day
Might charge 5 bucks a head... contributions to the Crownie, Red Wine, Bourbon fund
