freddyfiles – the evnt – in the volksworld magazine, the magazine for volkswagen pervs !

i was stunned to receive the latest volksworld magazine. it contains some good words of the freddyfiles event i organise here in ninove. thank you ivan, and rikki for these nice words.

some pics over here… but do and go buy your own copy of volksworld magazine at your local newsstand. support the people that support your hobby !

on tha cover !

a four pager with loads of pictures…

a nice article of Rikki in the bus section, discovering the GAS bus …

an killer article about this stealth black bus, that i’ve been seeing around, as their very nice owners , that i have been giving a lift to their hotel at the volksworld show because their bus was in expo (it was a pleasure 🙂

and last but not least, a previeuw of the article about a very nice type three we all know in belgium ! mr Q’s “LPU” made me look for a nice type three (together with beeks notch…) …

thank you ivan !

it must have been 1997… any ideas ? my 1957 with empi five spokes.

no, my car is not trying to mate with this 68, we (PAT -nivelles) are just changing drums and brakepads. if you want to see brakepads that are used, real used, with cracks, and super fine (due to use) rear drums let me know. seems that i brake alot ! 🙂

i gotta be honest: this thread on the cal look forum from norway really got me going.

I was stunned of all the pictures and stories that came up. long lost pictures, and memories that came with them. i looked in my harddisk, but could not find any pictures older than 2003. so i finally digged up the old wooden box with the oldstyle pictures. here are some of them. you can call me lazy, but the scanner i have is a major ***PITA*** ! so i just digitalised them by taking a picture.

i dunno why … but alot of my pictures were from 1995 …

first three pics are clearly from 1995. zumbo, rowan, and a very young alain strolling around in merksem. you gotta know i even did not know these guys by then. just random pictures, were later-on friends are appearing…

david at Ancy Le Franc … same thing here ! not knowing david, but liking his car, and making a picture.

i think this was 1996 in the UK, not sure might be Michels Lowlight. (or MVR show in mechelen ?)

at a certain paris show, where we met a new member of the SVW staff … Julien David, and we drank a whole weekend’s of likor on just half a day being bored to death by all tuning cars around us. alain cleaning his ride.

michel and alain, i hope you guys are having the time of your lives up there. (RIP)

never went to this one, but still have the flyer…

hey mike, you see, i also have a picture of you in that buggy !

hey Jojo, where are you ?

and finally, a 2002 shot from dyno don, and my lovely wife isabel, during the raffle at the 2002 classic. (we did not know who this funny guy behind the mike was by then… but we sure do now! hahaha) (oh, i always liked the shirt btw …)

i hope to sit back and think over where i left all these other pictures, from in between … 1995-2002 is almost a blank over here. anyway, i keep you guys posted !

 

 

 

 

i would stay in the car !

the haunted t3 squareback

after the big bumpers craze in the beetles, there also might be a big bumper craze in the baywindow region ?

let’s hope for good weather, and seeing mr D’Ieteren again, to ask him about the rally grille sets he bought from me last year.

and after all that, we’re all ready set to go ! Spa, here we come !
