My '66 Sedan First Car Show

Post by Bug-Eyed »

The picture is of my '66 in a recent and first ever car show. It was a little shy at first being the only VW in the show but she later on got over it.

Looks good.

Reminds me of when I was in high school with my first beetle. I too, took it to car shows and often won "best foreign/import" car. Namely because I was the only one brave or stupid enough to drive one in a GM town.

After the first car show, my tires got slashed. Back then, I was able to pick up brand new radial tires from tire barn.

Nowadays, I don't even think I could get the correct size tire from tire barn.
