not vw, so if the moderaters of this board feel the need to get rid of this...i totally understand....

the pics arent the best (shadows, low light and low res) but it gives you all an idea of the calibre of vehicles out there. this year there was a special section for vintage racing bikes....next year lets get some acvws in there (dd's split...lanny's turd...bruce's sc...geoffs porky panel...)...seriously, if anyone is interested i know who to talk to!! 8)































































































trev deeley's old race bike...





















this indian was cool...pacific northwest hill climbing champ in the late 30's, pressurized fuel tank, runs on alky...apparently it had every "rules allowed" modification possible...

steve...come on up next year...the show will be well worth the trip.

chris is bang on...open to the public but invite only for the cars (allthough i'm sure with a little coaxing we could shoe horn some acvws in there  ;)).

ont...yup it's a cord. i've never seen one of those before. it's a different monster that's for sure. and the steering wheel on that isetta sure looks like a standard 3 spoke steering wheel off an early acvw...can anyone confirm?
