Last of all a few pix from the Litchfield CT show, a little closer to my house last sunday. The 63 Cab beetle is one we did where I have been working. Also did some mechanicals on the blow thru turbo engine in the 'punk' beetle.

Nice pics mate - thanks for sharing them. Looks like a great week over there - I hope to get there some day.


Bizarre - June 22nd, 2007 at 12:41 PM

Icannot believe what they have over there.

Love the Heb with Fuchs

Too many split beetles to even start .

Man - that would have to be THE VW gathering.

One day...............


xornge666x - June 22nd, 2007 at 12:43 PM

Definately should if you havent been to Cali before.
ill be back over there for the Vegas BugIn and Drag Day in October... loving living a $200 flight from there!!

This trip we did 2300 miles over 9 days, as well as the classic events.

Haha, thats what I was saying, and thats not even everything, its far from it.
I have been to some big shows in CA, but the classic is definately the biggest and most amazing show I have been to by far!


squizy - June 22nd, 2007 at 01:03 PM

That just makes me ill. Top pics.


baybuscamperkid - June 22nd, 2007 at 01:24 PM

awesome pics, how big are the BLINGS on the Hummer? saw oen with very similar sized rims in Boxhill a week ago, was sitting next to it at lights, could have sworn his rims were taller then my window sills!


h - June 22nd, 2007 at 01:44 PM

cheers for the great shots..

28"


dvs_vw - June 22nd, 2007 at 04:33 PM

awesome pics, I'd love to go to something like that.

its funny how even though the tyres on the hummer are probably 305's they look like skinnys because the rim is so big and tall it makes the tyre look thin, even though its bloody fat!

some wild cars, hope I see some when I'm over there!


vw54 - June 22nd, 2007 at 04:46 PM

its the best weekend to go to several different shows lots of VWs

Ive been to the weekend 8 times over the years always spend money n bring back goodies


BenettonVW - June 24th, 2007 at 06:25 PM

Thats basically the week that Stealth and I(and our lovely wives) have not long returned from. I had the best time, but man... flat out.
(And if I think it is who posted these pics, you guys went even harder in the first few days!!)

I would completely recommend this stuff to anyone. Well worth it. Forget the 13 hours(on a good day) flight one way.. Or the costs of it all... Just do it.

I could post pics, but I think they would look similar! I might make an online photo album, and whoever wants to look can then.. I'll let you know when it is up and going.


xornge666x - June 25th, 2007 at 02:20 AM

haha, we went hard until wednesday just gone when Andy flew home...
Little more then 13 hrs for that poor dude, it took him 56 hrs from Boston to Melbourne.....

how was Vegas for you guys??

nice pics
great to see the different ideas they have and variety


GASBNR - June 26th, 2007 at 04:28 PM

Great pics, wish I had gone, bloody WIFE!!!


BenettonVW - July 1st, 2007 at 11:33 AM

Yeah awesome.. wouldn't live there. Would and could happily live in LA, but Vegas was nice to visit.

How the hell does it work out to be 56 hours? Did he catch a friggen bus to Australia or something?!?!

I still haven't sorted through the pics yet.. 400 from Nicks Burgers alone..


11CAB - July 1st, 2007 at 11:45 AM

There's a split window with a difference....:duh

http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o143/xornge666x/DSC03586.jpg


BenettonVW - July 1st, 2007 at 05:55 PM

Yeah, that thing was very nice... until I got to the back of it...


xornge666x - July 1st, 2007 at 06:04 PM

haha, there is some "intereting" rides there too!

his flight from Boston was delayed, then something happened on the plane and it emergency landed between Boston and LA, so he missed his LA to Melb flight... almost 24hr delay at LAX, then home....
they did send him in business class though.
I was too drunk by Nick's, maybe you have better pix of there than me!!


BenettonVW - July 1st, 2007 at 07:47 PM

Man, I have some serious crap to sort through.. I will post some if/when they are sorted..

Business class would have rocked. Wouldn't have come close to making up for the 24 hours at LAX.. Melb Airport kicks LAX's ass..


Golde60 - November 22nd, 2007 at 05:49 PM

i gotta get there

awesome pics andy

not much of those sort of toys over here......

all new stuff and most of its boring, and if its not then its expensive


VWFREAK - November 22nd, 2007 at 06:25 PM

Madness, gotta love the US scene. If only in Aus!
