Thanks to Bill Bowmann I was able to obtain a real tall VW used cars sign… the ultimate sign for the BBT building. but transport of this signs is absolutely NOT easy… fragile!!

Thanks to Tom and Bill the sign came to California (thanks guys!!) and I picked it up last weekend from Tom’s place to drive it to the port… huge undertaking!

2016-11-13-16-47-05Neighbour and VW fellow Rick Clark was all hands on helping, thanks Rick!!
