Barre, VT in 1973. Looks like rust was already starting to eat away at this rag top. (Click to enlarge.)

You sure learn clutch work and parallel parking to park here, eh?
Notice the Bug (lower right) parked where there is no legal stall, but he's short enough to get away with it (maybe). |

Growing up in San Francisco in the 60s the above photos bring back a lot of memories. There were so many VWs around the city that after awhile you just didnt notice them, when my Dad taught me to drive he would bring me to an area with no hills to learn the basics. After I had gotten better at clutch work the true test was to hit one of the steep streets with a stop sign at the intersection, I surprised him and myself on how well I handled the Clutch, E-brake combo. It was a 56 Ford F-100 pickup...Thanks for the memory. |

Not my photos, but looks like the Rondy Grand Prix in Alaska was a pretty awesome event!
