Well I had a really good time at the Campbelltown meet on Saturday.  It took
us an extra 2 hours to get there (4 and a half total!) due to poorly marked
turn offs in Delaware.  Made enough money at the show to pay our expenses of
the trip and to buy a couple of tee-shirts so I was fairly happy.  Finally met
Chris Turner in the flesh (JordanVW).  Seems like a nice guy.  Since he is
such a collector of Vanagons I was happy that he thought my Carat was very
nice.  The van worked flawlessly to and from the show.
My favorite vehicles:
'98 TDI Beetle
Eurovan Crew Cab
Vanagon Crew Cab (both vans had the same owner)
Breadloaf Crew Cab
Some very nice Corrados
'81 Extended Cab VW Caddy GTI (Rabbit Pickup) (slightly modified :) - FS for
only $3900!
My least favorite vehicles:
A Westy Synchro that was so cluttered with modified interior (owner designed
cabinets to hold his microwave, tv, etc) that you couldn't even turn around in
the thing
:(
Raggedy Beetle for sale next to me for $1000! (they sold it within the first
hour of getting to the show too!)
Thats about it.  I noticed that almost all of the older cars (beetles, things,
etc.) I could find at least one spot on even the most dressed up ones where
you could visually see rust.  In most cases it might just be a fine line but
this just shows you what a fight it is to keep these cars alive in the North
East.
Well hopefully be seeing some more of you at Carlisle, PA in May.
