Title: Alan & Dorys Collins 1957 Oval Feature? Post by: Alan Collins on December 24, 2009, 17:14:21 pm Hello,
My oval ragtop was featured in the Hot VW's February 2002 issue. Black w/ red interior, 2275 IDA motor, BRM's etc. About a month before RK Smith shot the car, a euro photographer named "Kiki" shot my car in Irvine Ca. after he saw my car at the VW Jamboree. I had heard from someone back then that my car was featured in one of the euro mags? Problem is, I have no clue if it was featured or what euro mag it might have been in. Does any fellow VW enthusiest in Europe know if it was featured and if so, does anyone have some extra issues. I have been out of the scene for awhile and the oval has been collecting dust but now it is time to break the car out again and have some fun. I forgot to add this has to be around mid to late 2001 or early 2002. Thank you, Alan Title: Re: Alan & Dorys Collins 1957 Oval Feature?
