A couple of years back Randy’s ATE bug was very well-known in the Californian VW circles. Randy drove it almost to every show!

When Randy passed away we were afraid that we wouldn’t see that beetle anymore, but it was snapped up by our SoCal friend Eric and has a beautiful life in Eric’s back Yard… with the luxury of an umbrella against to heavy sunlight… beat this!

Sometimes Eric takes it out to scare people at local shows… Eric is an early bird and lines up before anybody else…:) I thought this was almost like an art picture!

Thanks for taking care Eric! really appreciate the conservation of this beetle!
