Hi guys,

I am working on an article about Bug Run 2006. We got the pics and the words from a freelancer, but I need some information for the captions. Does anyone of you can help me with this:

1.) Facts: Red ragtop beetle, must be a '60 or '61, swedish, Fuchs wheels, licence plate BLD 428
What I want to know: Owners full name, year of the car, maybe engine displacement

2.) Facts: Splitwindow beetle, purple with yellow engine and other yellow parts. Was very famous in the early 90s.
What I want to know: Owners full name, year of the car, maybe engine displacement

More questions tomorrow!  Grin
Cheers guys,

Georg

Maybe the Swedes can help you?

I found a picture on the net from Bug-Run 2004, where the car got a price:



The man who owns the car now is a man called Tord Ekman....maybe some swedish guys here know him?
It says that the car is based on a 67, not sure about the engine size.
But i think the original engine that was in the car in the 90's ,is replaced.

Hey Georg,

I remind of a german mag called "Topspeed" featuring this car late 90s. It was based on a '59 and had a 3liter type4, if I recall correctly...

I might still have the mag...  Roll Eyes

I think you are right. It was featured in HotVWs here in the states, too.

Aha, what kind of article are you working on?  Smiley For a magazine or something?
