Saw a primered project car on a trailer heading up the Coquihala Thurs evening.  Then again a couple hours later in Westbank.  Looked like a 61-64.  Missing windows, front fenders, engine and lid.  Anyone on here?

Saw this car on Pinks All Out, shot in Kent Washington, a couple days ago. Just a quick shot of it doing a burnout.

I followed a red 69 Beetle with a Clarkdale licence frame today at about 5 crossing the Fraser bridge all the way onto Marine Way in Bby. 

I wonder how many years that 2 Beetles randomly drove along together around here?

If this is is someone's car on here, your right brake light is out, and your right tail light is wired up wrong.

Dammit Silas ya really had to go there didn't ya! That's it I'm choppin' the hair and selling the lambo!  ;D

Oh I saw some really horribly-painted up red and white late-model beetle with some sort of sheet-metal air intake (on the hood I might add) and matching sheet-metal spoiler over the rear deck lid today. It was pulling out of a trailer park at the 92nd-ish area of Scott road today - No joke. I wish I could have got my phone out of my pocket to take a picture.
Sorry if you own this car... Nothing personal  wtf

Olympic torch spotted cruising through Dawson Creek on it's way to the Alaskan Highway I'm assuming. Took this pic from my dorm room only a couple hundred feet from the main drag about an hour ago.

SEND US THAT SNOW!!!!

Saw the same faded Ruby Red 69 Karmann Ghia downtown two days in a row.  He must have gas shocks on the rear, it rides pretty high.

Bay window single cab, beige, with matching canvas canopy over the bed.
I've see it in Vancouver, near E 24th Ave and Glen, for the last couple of days now. Nice!


It's an insane world out there... and I'm proud to be part of it!

That would be me.

...or at least my car. Can't figure out if that was me, or if Connor was driving it Saturday night.

Dark brown.. maybe burgundy on my way back from Coquitlam on Loughheed about 3:15pm.. Almost caused me to rear-end another car looking back to see. It was pre 67... though that's all I got from peeking over the median.

Bruce in south Burnaby.

Close to home and probably on his way to watch Canada win.

I gave him a Peace sign and I think he gave me the BIRD. ;D
