Who's Going VW EXTRAVAGANZA

matt · July 28, 2008, 09:27:31 PM

I hope I can make it,

Now that my main project is just about over, I now have to start on a promised project for my wife, for the pool

Really, a wood burning pool heater to extend the swimming season....how do I get into these things.
At least it will test my welding skills 888
Got all the metal ordered at the cheap metal place Jack told me about - THanks!

My main project started as this....................got the rusty one in the back

Then made it into .........................

Rat rod side car..... I should be welding it to Jacks' rat rod late some night this week.

Figure I can get into the shows at at least half price! did it - cause I am sooooo cheap.

next project.......................

for a side car, will model it after this.............

I wish!

Still if my wife will let me put off the wood burning project a bit, I will be able to make it!

Hey That's kind of one of those Oxy-moron-thing-a-ma-gigs isn't it? Most of us think wood stoves and we think winter, not swimming. Cool idea does it also double as a BBQ Grill? Maybe wifey has somethig up her sleave for winter. A sunna maybe? Now that side car I'm really digging. Wish I never sold mine. :wallbash:

Hope you can attend. Jay

Didn't see you at lots of events either, what are you saving it for ?? old age?? or is the old 36hp just not fast enough to keep up with the Big Cars ?? kickButt

Beetleboi -Greg- · July 31, 2008, 03:47:29 PM

<---- is actually going to make his car dirty for the show... if that's even possible. I'm going to rub some oil or get the tires wet and go to town on a dirt road by my house. I know there are cars that are in even more beater shape but it's worth a shot. ;D

I now have a cigarette lighter to power my GPS and Pump up Yucells tires. Please tell me that you bought a new set.

*promises to fill tank before pushing of this time*

Do we have a Car Count yet of who's attending? Hey Jack, what route 13 we taking? Like thers only about a skillion route 13's in De, besides that isn't 13 an unlucky number, hell elevators don't even have a 13 but no-oooooo Delaware has them all over the place. Wuz-Sup-Wit-Tat? And stop calling my car a trailer :icon_geek: tramp. :wallbash:

By the way can we leave a little later, I may be having a late nite!
