1970
notchboy
What do we see in the pic below? I see Frank and Geri, the gay couple that lived down the street from us. We were friends with them but never spoke about why two guys lived together or that they were even our friends. They were invited to bbq's, but us kids were never told why they were friendly with each other after a few drinks.
Mom is sobbing over in the chair because she has already drunk too much. She hates camping, absolutely despises the dirt and the bugs. She only did it because we children absolutely go bonkers at the mere mention of a tent! But she is a trooper that can only carry so much. Four bottles of wine too much. :P
Dad yelled at her because Geri pulled up with Frank to show the dead deer they bagged. He didn't want her to embarrass us. See how Geri casually show dad the loaded Remington?
Nevermind the boy who is freaked out a bit that Bambi is laying on Franks hood or that the girl stands there wondering why mommy has been acting sooo happy now she is very sad. That's right. Welcome to 1972.
We had no safe zone. We weren't allowed to say our friends were gay or that we even knew them. Everyone had a gun and everyone drank and smoked and were allowed to get away with actions that get you thrown in jail today. It was a real struggle y'all. But we somehow survived and raised you. The kinder, more self-aware youth that we complain about. :lol: :lol:
I am the first person to tell a complainer of today's youth, we raised them. :wink: I just thought some of you would see the humor in this pic below. It does tic a lot of boxes that I was exposed to in my youth.

My 71 Super Vert Restoration
My first beetle
Bought my first project car and I’m very excited to get started. For context I am a girl with little to no experience with auto work. This project is a huge undertaking for me and I have been reading online and in books for months on how to restore one. My mother owned a 68 Beetle before she had kids and she alway talked about how she loved that car. It’s been her dream to have one in the family again. Last year I converted my 1.5 car garage into a proper shop. Started collecting tools, epoxy coated the floors and added a bunch of storage. I put money into a jar and started looking for my car. A few weeks ago this beauty popped up on social media and I was in shock. The price was doable and it runs! The car is completely original with the exception of some replaced carpets. No major body damadge aside from some minor rust and some dings on the doors from other car doors hitting it. It had been garaged for its life aside from a few months when it was between garages.
The previous owner of the car even had the history of the cars ownership. Here’s her back story
. In 1971 the original owner bought the car for his son. His son was then sent to Vietnam and when he came back he was not the same (ptsd, drug addiction). His father needed a way to pay for treatment for his son so he sold the car as part of a barter/sale to the person I bought it from. The sale included some deck carpentry and a few $.
The car was then garaged and used as a fun Sunday driver until 2004 when it was taken off the road.
I’m really excited to start this project and get her back to its original factory. The Samba has been great for my research and I look forward to all of your advice and support.

1978 naked girls in that blue bug
notchboy
I survived no helmets on bikes, lead paint, riding in the back of station wagons with no seat belt and the back window opened. But I'm still emotionally scared over them red, white and blue striped pants!
