Well, technically its not mine any more.. But it was when the satellite took this picture.. And the 2nd shape is my son's 67 after we had stripped the body..

Our old house has our 66 split outside but you wouldn't know unless you know....if you get what I mean :crazy:

Our new house is a field!

How about a little guessing competition..
Post a Google Earth image of a famous or familiar, VW related site.. Whoever guesses can post one up and so on and so on.. Sites can be as obscure as overseas VW parts suppliers, racetracks etc.... Hints are allowed as I imagine this could get quite tough..

I'll start with a simple (hopefully) one..

Sorry.. I'm addicted (for the 2nd time)
Try this.. Fly to these co-ordinates and tell me what you make of this action.. I'd like to know what the red plume is????

jo_tas - July 11th, 2007 at 08:13 PM

I'd say it would be those special drifter tyres that emit pinky redish smoke.. Cool find!

StenGuns - July 11th, 2007 at 08:18 PM

How about this?
33°53'34.67"S, 151°16'11.78"E

squizy - July 11th, 2007 at 10:00 PM

Well the first one, I want to know why the plume is coming out the front, and the second one....well it's not me, and they aren't waving!
