you mean late, it has the vents at the rear pillar and big lights at the back. the late model beetle with riviera's could look good as well.

Carry on.

I think it was Bug In 30 , where some guy in a booth was chucking EMPI key fobs out into the crowd at the end of the day. I'm walking around, and this thing tags me in the head. I look down at my feet where they fell , and there are two EMPI key fobs in little sealed bags. I remember looking up and saying ,"Thank you , God!" out loud.

A friend of mine bought that vert back in the early eighties after the Bug In. I had just picked up my 60' vert around the same time

Is that the maroon 'vert that appears in the Cal-look book? I don't have it handy for reference.

Even the vinyl top looks okay and fitting, maybe that's due to dechroming and the colour of that car. Awesome photos, really like the colours&light in those.

Who's Al Martinez? I was checking to see if I was in any of the pics as well Dean. Thank God I'm not! I didn't want to feel any older then I am.  Good times though! I can still remember where Mike's chop was parked in that pic! I can also remember him taking out on the track and doing a little dry burnout and running 13 sec. 1/4 mile time. Dyno can probably remember as well. He was up in the tower. OMG... Flashbacks!

Sure looks like it. I can't remember if his Berg linkage was black or not. The rest of the car looks correct, though. That was was my favorite Oval window when I was a kid. Back in the days when no one vibed you for running a stock fuel pump with 48IDAs. GOOD STUFF!
I keep looking for my friends, cars, or me in the background of the pics. It's cool to see a different view/camera angle of Bug-In. Thanks for the pics, Jim.

God, i was just a 17 year old kid back then with a camera and no sleep. We had camped out in line after driving all day from San Francisco. We did not have many cars around SF like these. I got plenty of stories of buying vws from HIPPIES near haight/Ashbury i will right about sometime. I have many more pictures to post, will start a new thread.
