From Finland with love
Resurrected 1960 Panel Van now in The Netherlands, restored while keeping its patina intact.
1972 Highwheeler
Sometimes the only way is up, and that was the idea for this non-Super Beetle sedan which now cruises along the sandy beaches of California.
Shark Attack – Puma GTE
Kit car? Nope. The Puma was a true VW-approved automobile. Coming from Brazil and now rollin’ on the streets of Belgium.
Westdale Barndoor
The rescue of a legendary Panel. We have known this one for many years and it is truly amazing to see it back on the road again in its fully preserved glory!
Irish Green ’53
1953 barnfind restored to perfection with a reliable 1776cc engine for long-distance journeys.
Tenacious T34
This Swiss quality Razor looks oh-so-good. Read all about it within these pages and be sure to check it out in real life at the AirMighty Show 2023!
Shows
After five years, it was finally that time again, the 3rd European Barndoor Gathering & Vintage VW Show was about to happen. A new location, but definitely an improvement according to many weekend visitors and vintage VW enthusiasts. And again a huge number of Barndoor Buses with 89 of them joining the VW party.
A brilliant exhibit at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles celebrates the 75th Anniversary of the Porsche brand.
Our friend El Dub goes out with friends; drive, park up where you want, and spend the evening chatting in a carefree atmosphere.
Now and then, they have a special display at O.C.T.O. And for this edition, it was time for the second ‘Barndoor Roundup’. A great turnout with 78 Barndoor Buses!
Off to Germany again for the 11th air-cooled VW Treffen including a great Hebmüller Coachbuild Display inside the Classic Remise, Düsseldorf.
More vintage VWs. And this is a gathering of very early KdF VW Beetles. No less than 22 KdF cars joined this gathering.
We need to do this more often… just a little get-together with likeminded folks at the MacCarwash in Amersfoort (NL). All free, only fun, clean cars, chats with likeminded and Bitterballs of course.
It was time for the 10th edition of the Aircooled Scheveningen meeting, where air-cooled VWs park on the boulevard for the public, visitors and participants to enjoy. With good weather the beach is the place to chill and hang out.
