Title: Looking for back issue Post by: Jon Schmidt on March 21, 2011, 00:25:20 am Hey There,
I was wondering if someone could help me out. I own a 1954 bug and I heard it was in a hot vw's back issue. I think it was early 90's. Here are some pictures of what it could of look like. The car is from Vanocouver British Columbia. [attachment=1] [attachment=3] [attachment=2] Title: Re: Hot Vw's Magazine Post by: DKK Ted on March 21, 2011, 00:35:33 am Pics did not post Jon.

Fabs? Title: Re: Looking for back issue Post by: Geoff P DVKK on March 22, 2011, 03:14:36 am I sold the orig builder most of the parts when I was working at the California Imports on Kingsway in Burnaby. That car was in it's first show at our Super Sunday event back in 91? I think it was Vw Trends that shot it as they also snaped a few shots of mine and a friends car.
Hope someone can find it for you. Title: Re: Looking for back issue Post by: speedwell on March 22, 2011, 15:07:48 pm i will look after this one but let me some time
fabs Title: Re: Looking for back issue Post by: deano on March 22, 2011, 15:42:51 pm Looking at those early photos of your car at the show, Hot VWs rarely does features on custom cars with hub caps. So, I would think if the car was shot at all, it was for VWTrends, probably at SIR during the old Bug-In days. I can tell you that they shot a lot of cars during that period of time, that never showed up in the magazine. But perhaps yours did!

The article is titled "54 BC". I will see if I have any extra issues. :) Title: Re: Looking for back issue Post by: . on March 22, 2011, 22:05:58 pm I don't have any extras of that issue.
