On my way back home I had a few stops to check out some cars from friends… the super nice spring weather gave me so cool pictures…
The next stop was at this old house from 1931, how cool starts this story? and more of it, what’s behind that house???
Well there was a garden shed, home-made as we all can tell…:)
In the garden shed was a Peek a boo hole…:)
Now these forms get a little more exciting!
Yes this is a split!
And another one! nice patina on this one!
I thought this was super cool, and hope you like the pictures too!
Will they come to Belgium? More than likely, but only future will tell!
Ok a couple of more stops down the road, have to load some sheet metal too, hopefully with more cool pictures, so stay tuned!
I talked with the guys from this double cab for a while… so nice hidden under their carports…
Ok the deal was made, so let’s pull it out…
and on to the trailer!! Come on Baby a new life is awaiting you!
Cool! even on this small picture You see the Seemed side gate!! the other gates are in the car… as are the doors…:)
I wrapped it up , but that didn’t work that well, although i must agree it looked cool!…:)
So I towed it home without wrap…:) This baby is for sale, it is cheap, especially for what it is, but this early (Dec 1959) You will not find many!! It needs all the welding and comes already with some new strong metal parts for the chassis!
Ok starting the big trek South now, Two more stops, are you comin’ along?
Ok first, don’t even try to pronounce the name of the town, You will not come even close…:)
Second, this is a good show, small and cozy, not worth driving 2000km, but since I had to be here, I’m happy I stopped by… so nice people and very cool cars… here’s my small report!
Setting was perfect on a campground who also hired “Stuga” (Cabins) and off course it was lake side, in north Sweden its hard to do something not at a lake side as there are lakes everywhere!
Cool buses, … cool guys too!
Enough patina? This is what you like, don’t ya?
Cool Bay Double cab, hard-working!
Ex Swedish army came all the way from Sundsvall,
The black beetle was practically broken in two pieces when they got it from behind a barn! They just pieced it back together…
Extreme cool patina oval ragtop; came out of the rafters from a barn…
And yes, there’ was a BBT convoy badge, this guy drove last year with us to Hessisch!
How cool comes this crew cab peaking behind the little house? I like this picture a lot! The crew cab might come for sale soon… in case you’re fancy…:)
a small line up at the entry… very welcoming…:)
Oh yes on friday night we eat all the Reindeer spaghetti!
Here’s the pile, and yes it was good! very good!
Extreme cool and well detailed Oval Eriba Puck combo, unbelievable nicely made and a cool owner too!
BBT’s distributor for Sweden is VW Up North, and Mauri, the owner came down all the way in his all original pick up truck to join! This pick up truck was saved from the junkyard, it’s entirely first original paint, believe me or not!
a small sticker ceremony!
Not bad for a white guy… I was till the last question second in a music quiz, … nothing very special except the presentation and questions came in Swedish!
Always nice to pack your “surprise” to enter a show… a lot of audience guaranteed!
So what was under the tarp??
A 1950 splitwindow beetle (or the remains at least) saved from the woods only couple of days before…
The two brothers that started this show 29 editions ago…
1953 convertible all original…. droooling!!
50 & 53 convertible…. what a pair!
This is Kermit, the only Frog who looks like a human being!! ..:) Kermit runs the show, and is just a hell of a guy!
Thanks Kermit for everything, I had a hell of a weekend!
another cool looker…
Here’s that crew cab again… it’s a 77 but made to fool everybody in to the correct early looks… this is for sale by the owner, if You’re interested just contact me…
Ah! That 50 split again…. Believe me or not, the rear window was hacked out 25 years ago, to put in a 65 beetle….
How cool can they be???
Ragtops are cool, no discussion about that!
Serious amount of visitors on Saturday!
All the way from Göteborg completely in the South; that’s a lot of kilometers for this Wide 5 club member…
Best sticker of the show…
Ok catch the road for more, starting our journey home with some very interesting stops… are You coming along?
