I have my '55 ragtop since 1994.
15 years ago.
It's not so cool to remember it... it was so long time ago 
I understand people who keep there volkswagen for years.
That meens for me they did the right choice and they fight to keep it and to buy other cars without selling there first love...
So keep going

Wow, I did the math and I have owned my  '63 bug for 14 years (this june). I bought it at the age of 12 and will be 27 in july. Car has over 128,000 miles on the same engine and a freebie transaxle that has needed a 2nd gear synchro since the day I installed it . I've been rear ended 6 times, front ended twice (backed into) and aquired numerous dents and dings over the years. "Rusty" (my car) still has the same old paint and primer spots, the same (real) 356 rims with nipple caps, and the same 18" section of floorpan completely rotted out between the battery and the pass. seat  .  Somethings never change! I'd have my dad paint it, but then it wouldn't be a driver...Plus nobody would recognize me in it after all these years of it being a junker!

Hi Mike,

I remember my first visit of the bug show at spa in 2000. I was overwhelmed when I saw all those top cal lookers from belgium and other european countries in one place. I was especially blown away by the ovalwindows of Phil (?) and you. It´s great that both of you still own your cars.
Keep on!

1984 for me.

I bought my '67 from the original owner in 1992. Two weeks later it was lowered, running on original BRMs and had an EMPI GT woodrim and EMPI E-Z-R shifter and was on the VolksWorld Magazine stand at Bug Jam.
The original owner had it for 25 years, I have had it for 18. I am really looking forward to being able to say I have owned it 25 years now.

I remember it on the stall, didn't it have a unpainted rear wing or two on it at the time?

Good memory. First time BRMs had been seen at Bug Jam.
