The August feature
Volkswagen another Bus with
a great story! Kelly writes, "Nobody thought
I would actually do it. I was 15 when I decided
that this was my plan. I'd just bought my very
first car- a 1969 Volkswagen Bus for $2,800-
and was saving up every dollar I earned to fix
him up. The interior seats were a mustard yellow
vinyl that reminded me of baby puke, but stickier
in the summer heat with no A/C. The flooring
was tattered and torn from 26 years of good
times. The interior cabinetry- an original Westfalia
conversion- was in surprisingly good shape,
save for a few peeled back corners of the vinyl
corner trim that had aged from white to creme-colored."

Front and rear disc brake conversion completed,
check. What's next? JBugs says, "Now that
we have 4 Wheel Disc Brakes installed on our
1971 Beetle we need to install a master cylinder
that can supply the appropriate amount of fluid
to the calipers. The installation is quite simple
and takes just a few tools. Bleeding the brakes
afterwards will take more time but we’ll
address that later as we’re going to be
pulling the body off soon." Watch

We
are lucky to find the love of our life but there
are three loves in
VolksWomans
life. Lois writes, "There are three men
in my life: my husband, Rob, my first born,
Vernon, and then there is Bogart, the baby of
the family. Bogie is my 1969 VW Bug. Rob knows
I love him. Bogart knows I depend on him. Vernon
just knows that he is about as close to human
as one can get and still be a Volkswagen. After
beginning his restoration, he is almost completed.
I took one of the last big steps left and had
him upholstered." Read

 The
Bug-In shows themselves began in 1968 at Orange
County International Raceway California and the
events were the chance for custom VW owners to
race, show off their cars and for performance
manufacturers to advertise themselves. The programme
included drag racing, slalom and Show and Shine.
These shows ended in 1983 when the OCIR was closed.
Slowly in the '70s and '80s the US drag custom
scene had come to Europe popularised via magazines
such as Hot VWs and VW Trends. Read
