I was talking to some of the vendors, man Ebay is killing them.

I picked up a set of 74 original bumpers for $50 and an original mirror for $5. I will have the bumpers rechromed when I need them and the mirror I am just changing the glass. THe after market bumpers are half the weight and after one rain the TRIPLE CHROME PLATING RUSTED!!!!!

I bought the bumpers from a 12 year old kid that fought me to the end, he wanted $75 to start. I gave him a free copy of my manual, we may see him on Samba in a few years.

"to the Hutch"

684 to the Hutch was fine until Pelham, then heavy traffic...got off and cut across to New Rochelle and 95S and made good time over the bridge to LI...

This was a fantastic show! Hotter than blazes but still a lot of fun. Hope to have the 73 Panel in Harwinton next year. Great to see everyone.

what can you do? even with a 4:30 boat, that would have put me into the east to west summer sunday traffic for the drive back to LB...as it turned out, I made it back to LI with only one spot of traffic and was home by 5:30 after a 45 minute stop in New Rochelle and at the beach with the van by 6:30 for sunset...next time the ferry!

I met Glenn this weekend too, he was a pretty decent guy! I camped right by you too Manny. I didn't introduce myself though. I was camping in the corner with Turbo Punk Tim from Volksrods.com. We were over by the CVA guys. I met them too. pretty cool, down to earth kinda guys. Tim from 401 Restos was right by us too. I know him, he's a local guy to me. I met some other Samba guy too, I forget his name, but, he said he was friends with the guy from Tijuana Customs, & then, as I was talking to him, The Tijuanan guy pulled into the camping area with his little Empi Imp & donuts. That was a pretty sweet ride! He wasn't interested in talkin to me though, I think he was on a mission... Rolling Eyes

Nuts that I missed the group shot; I was still around (wore a red shirt with my Lederhosen...)

brownja, glad to have met you; I wanted to gab some more but did not see you the rest of the day. Did you have a good time, and learn some things about Ghias? Nice solid car you have!

Shano, you have the '63 with the split rear window, right? such a nice car... I came thru D'bury on I-84 EB at about 8:15am...

Next stop will be the Flanders meet in NJ mid-Sept.? For those of you in the western half of CT, it's an easy drive and a wonderful location. Highly recommend it if it is a sunny day.
