This guy found this 49 bug in a barn where he was doing a job for a lady who bought some property. He bought it for $100 invested $50 in parts to get it runnng after sitting 25yrs in the barn. The car has some dryrotted tires but he's still driving locally with no problems. He was telling us about the story on the roofrack, being it had a VW stamped on the tubing, it was actually on the car when he got it. It's a german designed roofrack not a atermarket repro with woodslats.. anyway it seemed like the car had an accident in the past because both rear fenders and apron was not OG and the decklid is wrong for the year. but everything else was original to the car.

  A little late, but here are some of our pics from dripfest


   
Katie and Bridgett were happy we made it - last minute decision to go camping, got dark within 1/2 hour after getting there. You -all would have been proud, we beat our time record for putting up the tent!

Best camping spot ever!

We are waaay back there.. We kept asking Where's Shawn? - oh yea, probably down at the Tiki bar as he said.... we expected him to show up later....but.................



& no one else for quite a ways....







All set up

(http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt345/SPARKDOG2/2011oildrippercampingspotbestpic.jpg)




We walked an found some other campers spread out, hung out with them until 10:00pm, then THEY said it's time for bed!  2@@cool














None of the night pictures came out, but you can tell we had a good sleep and it was a leeeetle cold - Bridgett is completely under the green blanket.......

Got up about 8:00. & the morning, the girls made a pancake breakfast. ... they had some trouble getting the stove to go.... That's Jack's job after all...

Packed up after breakfast and headed to the show - GREAT SHOW - Better turnout every year the show goes on!

Katie took pic.s of her favorite cars this is one of my favorites
