Hands down my favorite show to go to. Had an awesome time, weather was perfect. Even scored some screens for my westy! Thanks to everyone who makes this happen. Did we get a final tally? I rolled in around 930 and there was already 300 cars. Left early to spend a couple of days on cape cod. 7 hours in the bug. My wife is a trooper...I was getting cranky..lol
My favorite car there..
Reminds me of what mine looked like way back..
This thing was crazy!

Another GREAT show @ Flanders, thanks to the N.J. crew for all the work they put in ! Just how many Split Buses were there ??
On the way down I stopped at a house where my Mom lived until going to College, the woman that lives there was the one that bought from my Grandmother, 50 years ago !! I remember playing on the steps w/ my Grandfather.
It was built in 1706 !!, added onto in 1732 before the town of Totowa N.J. was a town....

A bit late, but just wanted to say thanks to all the great people in NJ who brought this show into being. This is the best & best-organized car show we know of. This is our second year, and we'll be coming back again next year. (And, having studied closely the winning valve-cover racers, but missing this year's competition… Our kid will be back with a competitor next year!) |

I counted 30 in the show area, probably another 5 or so in the swaps.
Great bus turnout overall. I haven't seen that much fiberglass tilted to the sky ever before. _________________ Founder and Chairman Emeritus, ECMSAS

Seriously, by 9 am I could see from the registration area we had already maxed out the Bay Window parking. It was glorious. _________________ www.cjvws.com

Naturally Baywindow class filled up first. The class was dominated by campers, who unlike many of the beetles, ghias, things were parked overnight only a few hundred feet away.
Not to mention were the coolest kids on the show field... _________________ Mike

Seriously !
That's a fantastic video.
Only constructive criticism I can think of would be this... Next year get some of the epic camping action the night before in there !
Otherwise, fantastic work ! _________________ Drive your VW... That's what it was made for.
