Title: DKP cruz night... Post by: DKK Ted on October 04, 2010, 07:55:51 am Tonights DKP Cruz night turned out pretty good, met HECKER, pretty cool guy, talked about old times and our VW's, his black 67' was very cool! There was also a VERY NICE 66' off white, I believe a new beatle color, was a project in progress and a nice one at that. Anybody get any pics of that car?
Ted Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: Sarge on October 04, 2010, 12:57:09 pm I had a great day yesterday. First, there was a 3:30 meeting at Bill's house where we welcomed Fabien Becasse to the ranks of DKP (you really should cheer up, dude ::) ;))... CONGRATULATIONS!!! 8) ;D. Then we took to the streets for a cruise before heading over to Nick's for some food. A few pics...

Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: Rennsurfer on October 04, 2010, 14:17:07 pm Great night at Nick's... I concur. Congrats to Fabien! One of our DEEKS partially debuted his 1966 Type 1, last night. That's the car Ted's referring to. It's scheduled to get a full interior soon to finish it off. The rest of the car turned out GREAT! Owner, Joe "Skeeter" Larson is stoked to be driving the very D.K.K. car that he had thirty years ago. (more on that car in another thread, later)
Personally, I really enjoyed the silver convertible Ghia. Great car! And, as usual, had a fun time hanging out with everyone. Thanks for the pics, Sarge. Any more? Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: speedwell on October 04, 2010, 14:17:33 pm nice report bro :o

Ted Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: Rennsurfer on October 04, 2010, 17:57:52 pm Thanks for the pics, Sarge... I spy a rare sighting of Worm's convertible top in the up position.
;D Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: Worm on October 04, 2010, 18:20:49 pm Nice one Mark! That is actually the first time the top has been up in MONTHS. And can I say, the 48's growl a lot louder with a roof to echo in. Thanks for the shout out. It was cool seeing all you guys last night. I rarely attend the DKP night and I should go much more often it was a lot of fun....as always.
Anyone have a pic of my ride with the top UP? I dont. ha. Oh and congrats to my second favorite Fabian. ;) What a nice addition to the Fleet. Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: Rick Meredith on October 04, 2010, 18:33:33 pm Wait... Worm's car has a top??? When did this happen?

Rick M Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: Rennsurfer on October 08, 2010, 13:44:38 pm How often does the DKP do the cruise night and what day of the week do you normally hold it on? Rick M Every first Sunday evening of the month, unless a holiday falls on that day or there's a VW event. Bug-In & Classic weekends, the Cruise Night is moved to Friday afternoon/evening. Title: Re: DKP cruz night... Post by: rick m on October 08, 2010, 16:05:04 pm Fred,
Thanks for the info. Looks like I will have to make it on a VW event weekend. Rick M |
