Good thread. Name is Ermin, had a '61 Ghia and now have a '69 Riviera. Ghia would have been here at GCVW in 2005 with SK plates and I moved to Van in 2007. Ironically, while being here(I stored the car in SK), I sold the car to somebody in Van so you might see it around Broadway/Main area... I think Silas mentioned that he sees it from time to time.
former car

current bus(except it has orange curtains now like in the avatar)

And the mugshot...

My name in Jordan. Some of you know me, a lot of you dont. Ive had this car since I was 15. Have no plans of ever selling it. A lot of good memories with this car. I tought my wife to drive standard in this car when we were dating in highschool. My kids love cruising around in it. Its changed a lot in the last 19 years.
The first pic is my wife and I when we drove it to Reno for Hot August Nights in 2008. (sorry about the links but I am still figuring out how to post directy to the site)

The second is a rolling shot when we drove the car down to H.A.N 2010

I may as well join in on the fun...

Name is Geoff, Bought my first VW back in 87. Here's the first one I owned (the day the tow truck droped it off) It had been off the road for many years and suffered the 70's make over.



Here it is a few months later, wish I still had it  :'(



Since that first one I've had a few others  lol_hitting

and the ugly mug shot

My folks call me Joel, my 3 kids call me dad, but I have been called many things.
On here I used to be Crank... but I had to field way too many questions about the name.

I've been into VWs all my life, and for that I thank my grandpa for taking me racing on the Sea to Sky Highway in his yellow 70's beetle when I was 10. I live in South Surrey... ohhh I wanted to say White Rock!

Here are my current VW's:
1956 Beetle that I have had for about 12 years that was a pan off restoration.


My 1958 Walkthrough Kombi, that I have owned for 2 years and is currently a driver and a work in progress.


My Mug in Mazatlan. The smile = sun and margaritas.

I was hoping to find some old photos to scan, but no luck.

I have been the proud owner of the following over the years: 1979 bus, 1967 camper, 1973 bus and my latest (and last) which is a 1964 microbus:



And here's what I like to do after dealing with yet another VW breakdown (at Zigz on Main St at 14th in Van):



Cheers all!

Chris & Gina & family living in Langley, BC

When it comes to VW's I am OCD and possibly ADD.

First VW was a 75 Westy back in 89? There's been easily over 50 busses since then. What got me hooked was the freedom of the road trip in a bus - Mexico 2x, Alberta, Oregon Coast, etc.. (still primarily a bus guy but have diversified). I won't get into our current VW's as they change regularly...just keep checking the sig line for samples.

I have the best wife.

Actually Silas I have a picture of me and you . I'm showing my better side



The little buggy in the picture I put together for my 9 year old daughter. Long
story short she has speacial needs so when we take the bikes to the river we
sit her in the passenger seat of this and she waits for rides. Last week was it's
first time out and she really only had to wait when I was fixing it.


I also have an oval window bug that I got from my Grandmother. I will put up
a pic of that one tomorrow

This is a good start so far, it would really help if those who use usernames other than their real names to post a pic. So many people ask me who's who still so post a pic!

Notchback?
Rolls n pleats?
Bwaz?
Misovalgirl
etc....
