WELL, THE FIRST TIME I THOUGHT OF BUYING A
CAR, THE ONLY THING
I WANTED WAS A VW.
I MANAGED TO CONVINCE MY PARENTS THAT IT WAS : SECURE
RELIABLE, AND PROBLEM FREE...(I'M SUCH A GOOD LIAR YOU
WOULDN'T BELIEVE)... ANYWAY, 2 WEEKS LATER I WAS THE PROUD
OWNER OF MY FIRST TYPE 2. SINCE THEN I ALWAYS HAD VW
BECAUSE THERE ISN'T ANYTHING BETTER THAN CRUISIN'
OUTSIDE THE CITIES IN THE COUNTRYSIDE A
SUNDAY AFTERNOON ON BOARD OF A GOOD
OLD GROOVY SPLIT WINDOW BUS.
THEY'RE SO FRESH!
The
good thing about buying a vintage VW is that it's allways a surprise package. Good
and bad ones...
From my latest, to my first one...
| My latest was a 1962 pick up single
cab... |
|
| ...but
before it looks like that.... |
|
| .... I had to go through THIS!!... |
 |
|
But not with this one (1967deluxe) |
|
| I bought this
1965 in perfect condition, with a new
engine for 1800$!! |
...Usually I always get screwed...
|
| I used to bring her to meet some
other friends in Washington state, so she wouldn't feel to lonely among all
these new cars.... |
|
San Diego P.D
...Got busted driving 150 on the highway...
Yeah right... |
|
This 1965 was not a
good deal AT ALL!!! I totally got SCREWED! (Rust free thought)  |
| It was hell of a work to restore
this 1954 oval... |
one year full time to give her life again...
|
| ...But then she felt much better... |
|
Except that I look
stupid on this picture
+ I had short hair!...
 |
| And Here it is! My first VW! I
was 17. Nice orange overall hu? Matching the paint...Soon after I was drafted
toVietnam =)... |
 |
|
But despite all the time I got stuck in the middle of
nowhere with a burned engine or a fucked up gearbox, there is no way that I
would buy a new car, because new cars suck. It's too good to drive a groovy vehicle that
is 40 years old and to imagine all the stories behind it. And all the hot stories
too!!
