coolest rig i ever owned was a 1979 VW Camper. 2000 CC's of air cooled fury Man i miss that bus.

I once drove it to the soft side of quonny

Right now i am slowly restoring a 1971 super beetle. The plan is to sell it when i am done and buy a nice little center console I can fit in my garage..

The camper in particular is a speed demon, with water tanks, pop-top, and the kitchen.

Those were great engines, a lot more fun in a tiny Porsche with big carbs though.
