I did. Its great to have the Domeck brothers on board to guide us. In looking at the old Registry articles, it appears the last West coast event may have been in the 90s. Question https://sites.google.com/site/jeffgilleland/vw_archive

It will be nice to get it going again. Cool

Forgive my ignorance but what exactly is this event? I'm new to the Thing thing guessing its a Thing get together that will be happening some where in SoCal some time in April. Typically are all Things welcome or are we stuck on Originals only? If there are any links to past events where would I look under to find them? I mean Ive only got 4 months to think about this if its going to be a road trip... Very Happy

I used to go to the ones in Seattle in the early 2000's.David Campbell did those.Had all kinds show up from original stock to way over restored and also a lot of basket cases. Most owners were really nice but there were also some strange people too. Was fun to go to ,really miss them up here.

I would guess it would be run just like the East coast version, with all Things welcome. Cool Here is a link to the most recent event with lots of pictures:

You need to go to Ron and my website www://kubeltreffen.com to see what past events look like and some of the things that are done at these events. It is a great time to meet other thing owners there is no set thing for these events it is all up the one that is putting on the event

All Things are welcome in any condition. We have had cars towed in with bare metal, floor pans rolling in etc. We will see how Eric wants to set this up. When we say a show we do not mean only show cars and most times there is some driving tours starting with Friday night, Sat evening dinner, and a drive on Sun. Eric has had this in mine since April when he first contacted me.

Yes, all Things are welcome. It will be just like the Kubel Teffen East event just in the West for all of us Thing owners on the West. We are open to dates and locations. We were thinking April and in So Cal. We are working on everything now. A flyer will be ready soon. More info to come... Thanks.

A little history. Kubel Treffen East was started by Mike and Mary Crisp in Asheville N.C. At times there were over 100 cars showed up. This went on for 15 years and slowly dropped off to 20-25 cars so they decided to give it up. That's when I took it over and moved the show to Kentucky. With the help of Tee and Evelyn Watkins we were having about 50-60 cars. After 3 years we tried moving it around so we had a show in GA. Still running about 60 cars. After that year Tee's work load changed so he could not be a part of this anymore. That put it all back to me. Since I had put on weekend drives I had a couple in KY. Since then I have asked for host around the U.S. This year we were in Branson MO. and the year before was in Dover DE. This next year is looking like Dayton OH. I feel the more events we have the more people can join in. And the more are cars are worth if they can be used more. People come to a show and fall in love and see how much fun we have.

Id probably shoot for late April some time as it always seems to rain right around Easter around here? I guess there is somewhere where one could look over the history of the rain patterns are over a given area over the last 10 years or so? Just a thought.

As I go to the Classic every year, I recommend the location where VTO holds their Blackstar campout.

Here is a link----------
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=582939&highlight=vto


VTO’S BLACKSTAR CAMPOUT AT
PRADO REGIONAL PARK
Address: 16700 S. Euclid Ave., Chino, CA 91708

It is a great location, but not with a hotel as I remember KTE when I drove cross-country a few years ago.

I second that motion. It is a great place and very family friendly too.
Although lighting a fire is a little tricky late at night with those winds and a few glasses of CA. wine in my gut. Cool

A camp area is great but not for a show. I bet 90 % of the people that has came to a show don't camp. Keep in mind this is a show with a little driving on roads. It's great to have a get together and I have put on many weekend drives but this is a show.
