This bus was at Bugs On The Bayou VW show in Niceville, Florida yesterday. I just thought it was a particularly nice bus. Chrome Fuchs, 2110 with dual Weber 40's, slammed.
Good to see Wolfgang, Jody and his wife Karen at the show as well.

Very cool bus! Thanks for sharing those pics, Bob.
really cool Love that bus, not sure I would have the patience to drive it... maybe as a Garage Queen.
Great to meet you at the show Bob, love your car. I'm sure we'll be seeing you more often now.
THANKS,
Jody and Sharon.
Jody:
Sorry, my mind thought Sharon and my fingers typed Karen above. My apologies.
Look forward to seeing you two again soon. Hope your drive home was uneventful.
Drive home was great. We stopped at Ponce De Leon Springs and Falling Waters State parks.
Bob, with all the attention your car got you should enter it next year.
Thanks, Jody.
My attitude of "Judge not, lest ye be judged" extends to carshows.
I don't always live up to that, but I am a work in progress.

I can relate. When I put my cars in shows I always put a sign on it that said "For Exhibition Only". The only awards I was interested in were for the speed evens.

I regret I have but one "like" to give both of these comments!
That's how a T2 should look!

Agreed, totally! Love this!
My first choice for a retirement gift to myself is a Pre 1968 bus...Was nixed by wife, so we settled on a 1957 speedster replica. pretty good 2nd choice I say but still wish I had a bus...

Maybe she didn't want to get caught in the back of the bus with you; sneaky devil you.
I'm on your wife's side. She did you a big favor!
The VW bus to dangerously slow. Cool, but slow.
In my quest for a bus, I am resigned to a drive train that will get me down the road. Probably at least a 2110 and it's gonna be in Florida, so air,
Like cooling the inside of a cereal box, and oh so efficient!
