G-dog is awesome! And your car too! Thanks for installing my windshield. And even though my car is unpainted and lacks any sense of finish I sure know how you felt driving your car this past week!

great job gary. the more i looked over your car, the more i liked it. phenominal work inside and out.

here's a shot of gary waiting for stephan szantai (ultravw) and putting the final polish on his wicked ride. we were chuckling because stephan had taken off to look for a prime location and hadnt returned for some time. we were hoping he didnt get lost up in the backwoods of bc, adopted by a family of spirit bears.



stunning...



and then sean and his oval pulled up with dean kirsten who was shooting it for hotvws. 2 wicked cars, 2 photo shoots for 2 different mags, at one awesome location...the 15th annual great canadian vw show.

gary (white shirt, tan shorts) , stephan (tan shirt, blue shorts) & the 67 on the far left and sean (in the oval), dean (white shirt, tan shorts) and the oval on the far right.



good job guys. way to represent.
