Title: Re: The Race Shop Ghia (Wunderbug II) Post by: Russell on February 22, 2007, 23:39:13 pm All thanks for the photos.
Matt, I wish i had been there at Pats, what a moment in time that was, thanks for posting love them, glad you were there to record. Title: Re: The Race Shop Ghia (Wunderbug II) Post by: Martin Greaves on February 23, 2007, 00:35:44 am Got some of that day on video and it looks like Enzo (peter,s son) has some to we are going to have to pull on a disk for you.
Title: Re: The Race Shop Ghia (Wunderbug II) Post by: larry mck on February 23, 2007, 02:04:22 am Russell, What the car needs is some contingency stickers for the rocker panels. There are places that sell vintage stickers on the web. The picture of the interior makes it look so beautiful, any chance it could be cleaned up like that again? If John Preston can't make I would love to be put on the short list for that drive ;)

The plan is to get all the stickers remade and added to the car, I had hoped to get this done for EBI but im not sure time will allow, John has been going over his info in order to get me a complete list of everyone that was on the car and then it will be trawl the net until i can find or have them made, i feel this will be a mssive task to get right. But i will try. Russell P.s Point note about the Driver offer again, hope your still good at cleanning cars also !

What started as a slightly optimistic idea quickly became a reality, great crowd and a pretty amazing afternoon. I think on reflection that the mood was it had to be done, so it was. Yes, when it fired it really was quite a moment but it was only a means to an end and that was seeing it 3 days later back on the track. A reunion with it's past at Bug-In would be a great follow up. :) Title: Re: The Race Shop Ghia (Wunderbug II) Post by: Sarge on February 23, 2007, 21:49:47 pm Seeing Richard McPeak's name on the deck lid sure brought back some old memories for me. I was working for Sierra Porsche Audi in Riverside back in the mid 70's and got to know a lot of the VW crowd...Lee Leighton, Fumio, Dave Andrews, and Darrell Vittone to name a few. Darrell's shop was next to McPeak's and it wasn't long before I got to know Richard. I was driving a 73 Datsun Pick-Up at the time and had McPeak's pinstripe the truck for me. In between McPeak's and Darrell's shop was Chas Morse's shop. Chas was a very gifted fabricator who built some of the first merged collector exhaust systems as well as a lot of stuff for Darrell's race cars over the years before he passed away from spinal cancer. Those were the days... 8)
Title: Re: The Race Shop Ghia (Wunderbug II) Post by: larry mck on February 24, 2007, 02:53:13 am Check out this site www.backintimeUSA.com I bought some stickers from them. Get the big ones, I got hooker headers, hurst and 1975 Winternatioals. I could bring them to you if you want. Yes I'm good at cleaning up cars.
