Can't remember who's car this is... Rick? Bill? Worm? Anyone?
I can't remember whose car it was. I do remember that it was sold to someone who lived in my area. I remember chasing the guy down with a razor blade to remove his stickers!  I think that was Ernie Barron's car. A '68 or '69? Ernie had a little brother & I think he became a member of DKK. A short little mexican dude named "Pee-Wee" |

GREAT memory, Dave! Yep... you're correct on that one. PeeWee, later, went on to have a couple of insanely clean VWs. |

I still have this dash plaque, somewhere... with my Bug-In ones. NO, they're not for sale. Unless someone comes up with a stock '67 Bug. I'll settle for white or Savannah Beige, however.  Ya don't want a Savannah Beige one... it's been done! |

Awesome car, one of the coolest rides I've ever seen in these "old photos" along with Lemonade's Sedan. Keep the DKK takeover continuing  |

Wait a minute; I see where you're goin' w/this... but doesn't a certain beige car need to be on the road, first.
Yep... and Danny has disappeared! Ya know... looking at the pics.. I never realized how much McNews car and my car have in common. |

I remember that plate... but I thought that he had that on the yellow car. Can't tell on that freeway offramp shot because my reading glasses aren't strong enough. HAHA!! When I get those shots scanned, we'll be able to see 'em better. Don't think that I ever saw his '67. Must've had that before I got voted in. |

Yep, it was T.P. That other name is merely an alter ego, Brent. Havin' fun at the expense of others... ain't life grand?

Thanks for the kind words. The weirdest part of owning that car... was driving around Orange & Los Angeles counties and getting pulled over by cops when I was doing nothing wrong. They'd approach my car, I'd be sitting there... young/dumb/scared/and both hands on the wheel, wonderin' what the hell I did. HAHA!! After awhile, I became used to it, but they'd ask me how I lowered it. I told 'em that it was nothing fancy or unique to anyone else's car. But they'd always compliment me on how the car sat, which I thought was pretty flattering. Especially as opposed to getting a fix-it ticket.

They saved those tickets for me I guess |

Hey, DEEKS! You know who you are. Let's see them old club photos of us being DEEKS. Get those albums out, go to your attics, basements, whatever and make it happen.
Kevan "Lemons" Wood's kickass K.G.
Best one ever built, in my not-so-humble opinion.
Thanks Mark! Any way to get some decent copies of those photos? Awesome car, one of the coolest rides I've ever seen in these "old photos" along with Lemonade's Sedan.
You guys' compliments is making me blush!  Seeing all of these old photos sure reminds me of what great times we had with an outstanding group of people. Kevan |

You're welcome but not at the moment, Kevan... but soon as I get my lazy arse to a scanner, YES! Then, anyone that wants good pics of their old cars will have 'em for the asking. |
