saw a nice 2 tone blue & white late 50's/early 60's beetle lowered on empi 5 spokes with a wood slat roof rack parked on broadway just east of cambie yesterday.

pretty sure i saw jag in his yellow beetle heading north on the knight street bridge today around 130pm. musta been coming from his weekly appointment at the richmond special shiatsu massage parlour. did you pay extra for the happy ending?  :o :D ;)

Early Bay window (blue and white) over by HD Stafford. Looks like the nose just got smashed in over the last few days. Damn!

Scruffy but cool (23?) window split van crossing 152nd street on 32nd ave in South Surrey.

Awesome looking and sounding light steel blue lowered beetle with a roof rack in the Save On / Canadian Tire parking lot in South Surrey (what exhaust system? it sounded great).

I may have seen him in Abbotsford just south of AVR on Sumas Rd about 6pm today.

Thanks ;) I was there at about 5pm in my oval. I'm loving the deep burly sound of this exhaust coupled with my lumpy cam. It's a dual tip glasspack that I picked up from Egspot last year. Thanks again bud. I'll certainly buy another one next time I need one.

Also I saw a white early 60's bug (collector plates) cruising the beach in White Rock, and a electric blue lowered bug parked at Starbucks uptown WR on Saturday.

Very nice green (similar to Russ' oval) oval window, lowered, nice wheels and with deck lid stand-offs. Sounded good too. Was following then passed me in my bug on the Langley Bypass around 10:30 this morning.       sign0098

Seen a cool blue split bus, lowered with wide 5 empis close to White Rock Elementary.

And, a split single cab with no sides drove past my jobsite (roadworks) 160th and 26ave.

The Deck is making a GREAT WORKBENCH! It took a step backwards a couple years ago when he Loaned the roller it was sitting on to someone. The roller came back but I don't think it's on it :'( Hans helps sooo many people he never gets to work on his own stuff. I wish I knew how to do body work or anything about putting it back together. I owe him soo much time it be nice to pay him back!

By the way is this the stefan that has Sandy's old car?
