The "headliner" is actually just the really cool pattern the rust took.

i feel like this would have been VW's assembly process where the had a machine that would spray the glue on the roof for the headliner and then install the headliner. and where it didn't get glue it just rusted. cause it has been this way in all the cars i have owned.

Mark your calendars, Bug-a-Palüza "Sweet 16" will be held April 12-13, 2014 at Camp Jordan.

We wanted to avoid the Easter weekend and also still not conflict with any other regional shows. Hope to see everyone there!

Will there be any redesign in the layout? This is one of the best shows in the Southeast and getting bigger all the time. The show parking lot is starting to bust at its seams.

We are always looking for ways to improve the layout, this last year we packed in a lot more vendors by reducing the size of each space and charging less. It meant we could get in more smaller vendors who only needed space for a 10'x10' canopy, but some people who needed more space didn't realize the size of the spaces was different.

Other than the longer walk, camping over in the RV lot definitely worked out well this year, considering the regular field was pretty mushy. I don't know if this will be a permanent change now but it's a possibility. Not pulling cars and tents out of the mud is always a plus.

We are pleased with the growth of the show but we don't want it to get TOO big, or else it will become impossible for us to manage!

I wonder if the vendors should go on the restroom end of the lot? It seems none of the show cars want to park over there any more.

That's an underutilized area now! Hopefully we can organize it a little better to squeeze more room out.

I really enjoyed the new camping area. Didn't mind a little bit of a walk at all.

I didn't have a problem with the camping area, but I think it lost a lot of the feel of being part of the show. I did have a problem with the long walk. I like to be able to unload my swap meet goodies at my campsite and go back for more and it is easier to spontaneously go sit and rest or get up and check out the show. Just my $.02.

Good point about taking the swap meet scores back to camp.
