American Pickers tonight

May want to watch this tonight. in like 10 minutes. Apparently Mike is supposed to make a dream find in a VW yard.

he already found the batman kombi lol

It's starting to look good.

Well not that good

did you see all those and the split windows. Holly crap

and the baja split lol

an emblem and record player??? wtf mike

i know right!!! so much other potential there

Thats all he found??

he better have got more off camera - i cant believe thats all he would walk away with

What a let down. I cant belive that they didnt even spend any time on the cars and buses.

I can't believe he didn't "pop" on those two T34 razors...............

Man, this sounds interesting. Didn't get to watch it due to a paper, but it's on the DVR so I'll catch it tomorrow!

I wanted the whole show to be just of the VW house! I could have spent all day there.

Yea, kind of a let down. Mike says he's a VW dude but they spent more time on motorcycles than VWs. He did say they were all "swiss cheese" though. I knew he was a VW dude from a previous episode where his brother was talking to the camera @ their shop with a bus in the background. He sure likes those bus emblems. That's the second one I've seen him buy on the show.

Did it tell what state they were in?

heres his phone # - 618-319-4472

call him up

closer than Cali!! big VW junk yards- either Cali or Arizona - both- but remember a place when i lived in orange co that had a ton of vw stuff - doors seats ect-

I got to see an episode last night of American Pickers on the History Channel where the guys visited a collector in Indiana with acres of VW remnants. Most were in pretty bad shape but a cool place none the less. Show should rebroadcast this Friday at 10pm and will probably be viewable on the www.history.com website soon.

(Moved from another thread)

Dont know if they are getting pestered to death or what. An old lady answered and didn't sound real happy. "wrong number" click.

haha- you could PM him on the samba...
