I'm crazyeyes... i met a few of, well all, the phoenix guys last friday... seem like a good bunch of guys... i have known jeremy for a little bit.. so i assume the rest of you guys are just as cool...

As far as VW's go, They are my life... i have had close to 20 or so in just about 6 years... i got into VW's as a kid but didnt buy one till 2003... and everyday i learn something new about them.. and i hope i will never learn it all... i love wrenching on cars and helping people out... i work for free and a few redbulls every now and then... if i get another VW slammed and on the road, i have done all i need to do...

i am currently trying to help an AF Crew Chief on his Manx.. and my buddy Dave just picked up a 65 bug out of the mud for free that had not seen pavement since 86...

here are pics of my past rides and then the last pic is of my current one

my yard with the 63 laying low... got drunk one night when it was raining.. started doing brodies in the back yard in the mud and toasted the 63...

Image

The 65 and my late model Squack aka "Rat Nest"

Image

Image

My old 66.. sold it to DHP Duffy.. he lowered it.. it only had drop spindles when i had it...

Image

The "Chopster" Justin Summerville owns it now.. and its green primer... saw it at BOR with slicks on it still

Image

Dan Prado's old race car... sold it to get my current SC

Image

The 65 I just parted out to get a narrowed Bus Beam

Image

My 61 SC.. its currently for sale by the new owner on the samba.. dove blue now $13,500!!! what a waste of my money to have sold it!!!

Image

Image

and now.. with out further hesitation.. My 59 Single Cab!!! this has been my dream car for years.. dont ever expect me to sell it... i can always just sleep in the bed... so if i ever end up broke... i hae a backup plan not to sell it...

it will recieve

SB raise
4" narrowed beam with disc brakes
T3 rear conversion
3:88 trans
rebuilt 40HP motor
and????

Image

Image

look forward to meeting more people with the same obsession..

Thanks,
Mike
