Cameron that bus on e 33rd is actually green, looks to be pretty tired paint, and its got rust, but last year the owner was driving it around. it has been sitting since summer time. I think she brought it here with her.

Its a late 50s bus.

I just spotted a slammed 65-66 light blue Beetle on Warner in Fountain Valley near the 405.

Last weekend I saw 3 Beetles in TJ, 7 on the way down to Ensenada, and 8 more on the way back.  Not many VWs on the Baja.

Around noon today, late 50's to early 60's pale yellow bug, stock looking with a roof rack (looked pretty mint) heading south on 200th St at 80th Ave in Langley. Also, yesterday at 11 am saw a blue manx looking buggy with a black top travelling west on Peardonville at Townline in Abby.
