    I think the Bugsters are starting there own thing on Friday nights.

    But as Johnny said in the coming weeks as temps go up and daylight savings we will see a good mixture of everything and thats whats gonna make this a badass place to go.

    Well after the damn GPS got us lost we finally found the place. Had a good feed, had a look a few interesting cars, not many coz of the showers. Spoke with one or two ppl, most werent interested in talking to an aussie, but the guy with the blown yellow falcon was kinda interesting to chat with. Overall i'm glad we found or way there.

    Hey Ford, Bugs are cars too. I cruised Harveys from 61 to 68, in everything from a 54 Chev to a Phils hydro equipped 56 Vette to a 62 Bug. In fact I met my bride of 42 years draggin Bellflower Boulevard in the Bug and currently race Bugs on the Bonneville Salt Flats along with all the other hot rodders.

    We VW guys are no different than the Ford, Chev or Mopar boys, a little smaller perhaps,
    but we don't need 'our own night'. Just enjoy that you can now cruise the BBBB again while I have an 800 mile drive just to slide under the awning.

  18. I have no problem with the VW guys. I was one once. As long as they are cool,just like anyone else who shows up,then who cares! I might drive out tomorrow...

    I've been a hot rod guy my whole life, but, I had a moment or two with those pesky bugs, like this one which was a sleeper. Buick V-6 powered. In it's time, it ripped many a hot rod a new asshole when they got smoked by my "Busby Berkley Quaalude Nightmare".

    However, not the kinda smoke I had when I was painting it back in 1967. Ha!

    How's Bob's Big Boy Broiler in Downey compare to Bob's Big Boy in Burbank on a Friday night? Which cruise lasts longer? Are cars different at the two cruises? If you can only make one, which one?
