Coffee Glider update

· Leave a comment ·

Well the progress over the past 4 month has been slow. But now after watching Roadkill live the past weekend i whanna get the car done.

This is what has happen in the past month.

I had an extra pair of headlight glasses so i painted 2 of them with yellow glas paint. Looks pretty good, but i’m not sure i’m going to use them.

And i have always wanted 2 nice yellow foglights, but i’m not gonna pay 100€ for them. So i surfed the ebay wave and found these 4″ lights and they cost
14€ from China with shipping so i had to order them =)

Bad Camber 2013

· Leave a comment ·

Well on Saturday morning me and my buddy Jonas took his squareback on a road trip to the Bad Camber meet in
a town called Borlänge, but first we tought that we should stop and check out the Rat Fink Reunion meet a little bit closer to are town. We started are road trip at 8 in the morning, got to Rat Fink at 9 BUT they didn’t let either visitors OR exhibitioners in until 11. SO should we stand outside and hang around for 2 hours or head on to the Bad Camper meet. We stayed half an hour then headed to Bad Camber.

Well that was really lucky because we sorta took a wrong turn and after 15-20 minutes we noticed that =) so it took a hell of a lot longer then it should 🙂

But finaly we got there =)

Enjoy the pics from this awesome event

This got to be one of the cleanest VW trunks i have seen, well you can hide every cable behind a cover like I’m gonna do to my 61. Or you can lay your heart and soul into it and do it like this.

Call your Cuñados

Nice movie from eGarage.com

“Cuñado” means brother in law in Spanish. In our circle of early bus friends we use the term as a bond between others that transcends the split window bus. Cuñado is a mindset and camaraderie developed through owning and maintaining early split window buses, camping, grilling out, and attending car shows and swap meets.
We look out for one another as if we were family”. – Mark Pribanic
