Subject:      UK Bug Freeze - update

Hi all,

I just thought I'd tell you what I did at Bug Freeze last Sunday.

Well, I managed to sell 3 sets of Split bus US spec. rear towel rail tubes which paid for the stuff I bought there.

I found a guy selling some interor panels, they were in pretty poor shape (he thought) but after I pulled off the vinyl pieces, scrubbed them with some Flash bath cleaner and stuck them onto new hardboard, I had a new set of interior panels for my bus - cool, they have that straight look about them now, not all warped and saggy.

I got a roll of black carpet from that Middletons place for 5 quid. I'm gonne edge the carpet with green vinyl strip, and it'll go well with the interior theme.

I got an extra cool, 21-window, in green and white, key fob for 1.50

This was my first major VW event that I took the Samba too and it cruzed really well down the M6 at 60mph! The sun was out and the skies were blue. I even took my coat off about 30 miles into the trip, so it must have been warm.

Danny, (my mate), got a Splittie door top to match his other door top which are to be sent off to the Chromers. He also got some NOS, vent wing latches, door window latches and popout catches.

Next meeting for me is the VW Enthusiasts meeting near Coventry on March 5th.

cya,

Lee.
