My father has a VW trike. All exposed, springer front end. Looks crazy. I'll see if I can get a pic soon.

I have 5 or so old beetles, 6 or so busses, 1 vanagon, 1 type 3 fastback, all parked until I get a wild hair to put something back on the road, & I have a 63 Beetle I bought when I was 13, & still have it, the engine I rebuilt for it when I was 13, & I re-rebuilt it when I was 35, but put in a different car, it is in a 71 super beetle presently.

being in & out of the scene for 32 years, + loving them since I was a child, I do take spells every few years, then drive a couple, then park a couple, etc...

I didnt realise these were considered rare? uncommon maybe, I think I have 3, have seen alot in my life around these parts, but have owned them 20+ years, 1 part I consider Rare is the HERROD HELPER, had mine since the 80's an add on accessory rear spoiler.

1973 Bus - Loved this one, drove it cross country. At one time the local stereo shop used it as a demo vehicle and it had 8 10's in a massive box and a crap load of speakers throughout. Can't find pics though.

1977 Westfalia Bus - I bought this one years ago and sold it to my dad. Recently swapped in a motor from another bus and was back on the road. It's getting a freshening up and then it'll likely get sold.

1981 Vanagon Westfalia - This one has a new longblock waiting to be installed and some other misc. things. Hoping this will end up one sweet camping ride, it has the stove and fridge.
