Any body in to restoring or showing old Volkswagens? Just curious if anyone was , as this has been a major hobby for myself and hubby for over 23 years . |
I love the old Beetles!! They are super cool! Also, the Karmann Ghia! I don't show or restore but sure appreciate an old classic car! :) |
Yep, my son just restored an old beetle and showed it at the local VW club show. Got best interior. Runs good, some rough exterior areas but is all original. |
Great guys ! You know I am going to have to post some pictures now ! Have to remember how to do it .. have some Beautiful examples |

I drive a 2001 VW Jetta VR6. Came to me straight from the factory in 2000 and we have kept it in pristine condition, except for the dog hair on the seats. :D Wouldn't dare bring it to a show because I would be laughed at for not having it lowered on the wheels. Before that, I had a Rabbit convertible. A tow truck dropped it and killed it. Dad had a '66 Beetle. We regret that we had to let it go. Would love to have another. |
