here is the nice notchback from the DFL – from hell !!!
 
(why is this guy laughing ?)

I also spotted this german white 1500S in Bitburg.
 
it is a great car,
but too bad he doesn not have the deluxe trims anymore around the front and rear windows.
 
 
 
 

I plea Guilty,
 
i did not took my 1500S car to Bitburg, ‘cauze my sweet 1500S is not a DAS member.
 
The 1957 big window beetle i cruized down to Bitburg, is in my possession since 1993, and sports a fierce 48IDA-ed 2007cc engine since 1999. I really got a lot of help from all of the club members building my “Little Bastard”. back in 1999 a 2007cc engine was very exotic, and not alot of know-how was available, But it still holds, and after more than 25.000km the engine still runs 15.2 with fan belt and 14.7 without the fan belt. (best time of 14.53 at Santa pod)
 
here you see a picture of me cruizing down to bitburg at 70mph against 3600rpm.
(due to the short gearbox)

i S-spotted this guy and his T shirt on friday evening at the beer tent. We were showing some car orientated DVDs all night long. especially the DVD from the first event, seeing some fierce dragracing action was impressive !
 
The DVD from the first event still can be obtained at gra.art@skynet.be
 
 

It was a very relaxing event, with a very relaxing feeling.
 
everybody was concentrated on racing and checking out cars for -even more- ideas, and no drunk fools were wandering around …

This guy was so tired from checking out all those cool cars, he had to rest in this super cool, deluxo very nice 1500 S with replica BRMs on it.
 
this is the relaxing seat we all dream of ! a 1500 S !
(by the way. nice shirt.)

well, i got to give it to ya, it has been a long time since the last post…
 
but i have been busy !!!
i have been to BITBURG, for the DAS DRAG DAY number 2 !
 
it was hot, hot, hot !
not only the weather, but also the action on the dragstrip ! there were a lot of cars and amongst them also some very nice type threes.

Sexy ass
 
As seen in the US.
 
Classic – this yera i think.
