The Steering is pretty wild, it is an original VW wheel , I think it was a early days attempt to having an Kustom Steering wheel , bent and remolded, the steering wheel is dated '54

Whoever commissioned that steering wheel to be built must have short arms

Frank,

I just want to know if you simply tossed those goodies into that pile, or if you had your on staff "feng shui" consultant design and gently arrange everything into the right position for the photoshoot?

I miss you! See ya at Kelley Park?

Yeah Bill . . . . . I am really thinking that Frank just “simply tossed those Vintage VW goodies into a
pile” and they all landed into a perfect “Feng Shui” photo shoot :!: :!: :!:

A similar thing happened to me when I just dumped a box full of old Japanese 1950s era, 18 in all tin
Toy Nomura Oval Window VW toys on my hobby work bench and took a photo as they all landed :!: :!:

Merry Christmas you filthy animals!

Most of these parts were bought in 2019. A lot of my collecting these days is stuff going in or on the L41 '67 Vert.
