21 october 2015 - Meetings

Pomona swap is claimed to be the largest swap meet on planet earth… once in a while its fun to stroll through the endless rows of cars or parts… even the VW side of it is rather small, the atmosphere of gasoline and oil is everywhere, and the side is out of proportions…

This picture is taken from the back parking lot…?  Just to give You impression about the size it is!

20 october 2015 - Stolen

gestolen1
Deze old-timer (1986) Volkswagen T3 Vanagon kampeerwagen werd afgelopen week gestolen te Antwerpen.
Van dit U.S. model zijn er in Europa slechts weinig ingevoerd en de wagen is dus gemakkelijk herkenbaar.
Spijtig genoeg werden de boorddocumenten mee gestolen.
Mogen wij vragen mee uit te kijken naar deze unieke wagen en dit bericht met uw medewerkers, collega’s en in uw verdere netwerk te delen.

Alle tips en indicaties of suggesties om deze bus (en vele vakantie herinneringen) terug te vinden, zijn van harte welkom via ons (zie onder) of via de politie. Mogelijk wordt deze bus integraal of in onderdelen u aangeboden met een afwijkende nummerplaat en chassisn° (en eventueel kleur), wij komen graag langs om waar mogelijk te identificeren.
