VW Week Coda: VW And A Broughamy Compadre In Time Suspension…
Posted on September 29, 2013 | 19 CommentsI know we had a full-zoot CC on the VW Rabbit pickup this week, but I wanted to give a preview of a family VW that is still with us–albeit […] -
CC Outtake: Volkswagen Dune Buggy- The off-road Cobra
Posted on September 28, 2013 | 8 CommentsI wanted to include a REAL Dune Buggy as part of Volkswagen week, but I guess I’ll have to settle for this… It looks something like the real thing, but […] -

Museum Capsule: 1974 Volkswagen SP-2 – The Brazilian Porsche

Curbside Classic: 1968 Baja Bug- Simple Design = A Great Car

CC Outtake: 1996 Volkswagen Passat TDI – TD Or Not TD?

Curbside Derelicts: Conroe, TX 2003
Posted on June 26, 2013 | 21 CommentsHere are a few happy snappies of some (relative) exotica spotted during a Sunday drive that passed through little Conroe, in East Texas, in 2003. The brain-fryingly colorful sight of this VW […] -
CC Outtake: Baja Bug on a Concrete Beach
Posted on June 3, 2013 | 10 CommentsOK, not the first Baja Bug to grace these pages, but certainly (IMHO) a pretty one. This example, which looks to have been constructed from a late-’60s Beetle, was spotted […] -
