On the way to work yesterday morning saw a decent looking 63 splitty in the driveway of a house for sale, stopped and dropped a card off and he called me today and came by the shop. He was on his way to Fl from NH and stopped by a friends house to spend a few days. Nice Turkis split he has owned for about 12 years, it was a pretty pretty!!!!! Hopefully catch him again on his travels back thru woodstock again.

was the vw sign painted on the old house??? on yellow creek rd perhaps? sounds like tim's place, he has a bug with a peace sign painted on the front too.

Thats the one! Was doing a job nearby and did not have the time to stop.

That is Tim O'Bryant's (Der Schwarm member) place, he'll be at the nov cookout, and was at the mellow mushroom cruise. he drives a green 67. he has quite a few parts and will sell them. I've known him since I started vdubs, and really helped the club get started!

Tonight, probably around 5:50 as me and Bob were heading to Carrolton, we were cruising through Whitesburg and passed somebody hauling a nice shiny creme or white split window double cab on a trailer heading towards Newnan.

I see a late red beetle at the mobile home park on 19/41, on the right just before you get into Griffin.

by PeeWeeMan91 Wed Dec 08, 2010 11:18 am

Yeah me too I think 19/41 is a popular vw spot By the way there's a fast back that has some minor work if wanted perfect little rust spots. But it's for sale in barnesville. Idk how much he wants for it I think it's 1973 beige.

Was watching Chop, Cut, Rebuild on Speed this afternoon and here's the show's host, Dan, pulling up to AMD in Buford, GA in this ragtop. The project car in the shop was a 68 Charger.

Joey Cagel owned that 58 rag at the time they used it on the show.
