I know there are at least a few VW peeps on here in So Cal, any of you going to the VW Classic on Saturday June 21? I'll be out there with my 55 Oval, it would be cool to meet you guys if you come.

I'll be there for sure! It's my favorite show of the year. Sad the pre-shows got messed up due to the date change. Did you go to OCTO too?

I didn't go to OCTO this year, too lazy, lol. In fact, I haven't been to OCTO since it was at Angles stadium, which is literally 1-2 miles from my house. I may go to the DKP cruise on friday, not sure yet. You bringing a car out on Saturday?

If you want to meet up at the Classic, shoot me a PM and I'll give you my cell phone number so we can find each other. That goes for anyone else going too.

would love to. But next saturday might go to Lancaster for the Fast and Furious 7 open casting call. PLus my bug still isn't a driver yet. Would love to see your Oval in person. Was hoping to make the Corona dealership take over next month. but i pushing to have her driveable before the winter rains. kinda slow at fabrication now.

How weak is the early water pumper turnout?

The waterpumper crowd is usually pretty small in general, and early ones are of course even less. Personally, I really like seeing mk1 and mk2 gtis and mk1 sciroccos more than the later watercooled stuff

Rabbit trucks are getting big again, especially with newer TDI motors installed.

Cool, I'll PM you my number. I'll probably make it out to DKP too.

Fuel pump is still out on my GTI, and the 57 is still barn fresh, so I'll be VWless this year

and RC10Resto, you have to bring out the Scirocco!

What year Scirocco? I had an 84 I built a 2.1L for, fun little car.

Last show it saw was 28 years ago...............May 1986 (needs a little bit of work before it shows again).
1981 VW Scirocco S

Cool 'rocco, bring it out if you can, I'd love to see it!

I miss going. We used to do the whole weekend, Stay at the host hotel with the toy and literature show, OCTO, DKP cruise, drinking etc. If I went , I would just get the "BUG" again

Dude, you've got the Inch Pincher as your avatar, on an rc car board none the less, you've got to go

Damn you guys, Now you have me looking at my old VW pics. Here's my 66 fastback I took last time we went to the Classic.

Looks cool, I love type 3's. Buddy of mine in Houston has a 65 notch I used to work on a lot when I lived out there. We replaced the bottom 6" of that car in my garage
He's running OG Cosmics on it.
