Very cool pictures!


Thanks for the kind words!

Actually I did. On the buggy forum at TheSamba.com. It is also documented as the "ECVW" trip on that same website.

Here is another I am building. Just started buffing after wet sanding the paint. Then found out I am out of Perfect III stage 1 compound.

You are dead on. We followed I70 into CO, then up to Golden, from there on into CA we ran back roads and semi-back roads. Here we are stopping on the first exit west of the loop around Indy to pick up another buggy to the group. You can see Chris in his blue Number 7 Monocoque Manx on the left side of the picture.

Ha Ha! If people only knew what was in that decades old playmate. It held about $ 3000.00 worth of anti-rejection medication for my Kidney Transplant and heart issues. Used some high tech cool wrap to keep ice around the medicine when we crossed the deserts and worked great.

When I "ran" Pikes Peak, I unloaded everything including the cooler to help lighten the buggy. That was a blast. As soon as we got out of eye sight from the toll booth, I turned it on. We go-pro'ed filmed it, but do to breaking several laws, I cannot post it.

Once at the top, I got a little rattled thinking someone I passed in a curve may point me out to the authorities, so, I placed a rag over my license plate to keep from being identified. (not thinking I would have the only bright orange buggy, in most likely 40 miles on top of that mountain).

Cool! That red one is a '73. That year had the gas heaters, warm!

That weekend our local Aircooled club was invited to be in the International Auto show. But we were placed on the upper level of the Civic Center. They hoisted all of our cars this way both in, and out.

Here is my original paint '73 Thing.
