This is going to be great! I can't wait, I've been hearing about collections coming out that rarely see light!

Makes for some great times! You'll even get to see my car... In peices of course

Please feel free to bring out your clean swap items and join in! No cost to sell or display.
Come enjoy a cold drink and some snacks while looking at some VW history.

I think he means "no cost to sell". Just want to display it, and it's not for sale? That works great too! Let's get that old stuff out of the boxes in the basement and pass on the fun to others!

[Geoff]

If your looking for some rare, Empi, Race Trim, Lang, DDS parts don't worry....Lot's will be on hand! :-)

News Flash!!!

You say you didn't get your copy of Hot VW's with Dean Kirstens Beautiful 1967 Beetle in it?

Now's your chance, Deano will be on hand and we have a very limited amount of that issue up for grabs. (only ten!)
Deano will gladly sign a copy of that magazine for the lucky few that get one. If you don't think you will be there in time to get one bring any one from your collection!

This is your chance to have a personalized autograph from a true Cal Look legend!

Vintage Speed Event was huge success! We raised a large amount of funds for the Vancouver firefighters charitable society.
