Title: Ultra Vw Features
Post by: Ayrspeed on September 19, 2006, 03:22:17 PM

Greetings all...
Just to introduce myself, I'm the other writer who sends North American stories back to Ultra, although I live in Vancouver. Always looking for good cars for features. Finally pinned down the editor to agree to featuring a few cars I saw in Coquitlam more than a year ago, but now I've lost the contacts. Duh.
Found a couple of them no bother, but still looking for Mike Grocott and his red TS Notchback, Chris O'Neil and his detachable-bodied Bug, and a Starsnstripes-painted front-V8 drag Bug from Washington.
Also looking for any tasty cars that Szantai might have missed. Just aircooled and vans, though.
ayre@dccnet.com is the contact if anybody can help. Incidentally, Ayrspeed is nothing to to do with Airspeed: in another life, I used to make fiberglass XK120 Jag replicas out of XJ6 sedans, which were called Ayrspeeds. (Ayrspeed.com if anybody's interested)

Thanks for that, I've emailed him.

Red Snapper sent a message but I'm not allowed to receive it. That seems wise, I wouldn't trust me either.

Mike G. is Wagonmike (http://www.airspeedparts.com/community-forum/index.php?act=Profile&CODE=03&MID=622) on this forum. For the record his red TS is a squareback not a notch.  ;)
