Don't forget Jeremy Vreeman aka Mr. VW. He now runs a VW restoration business out in Colorado. He at one time I think was doing it in conjunction with Rocky Mountain Motorworks, but now is called Motorworks Restorations I believe. He is also on facebook and boy does he and his crew churn out some mint looking restorations. Thanks for the commendation Ray. My wife and I have worked hard to get where we are. We are within a month of being moved into our new house and my wife told me just the other day, "I can't wait to get moved in so we can start the restoration on my little bug." It's a 1963 and it's all she's ever dreamed of as far as transportation goes - she wants her little bug to vroom around in. :)

Don- that goes way back. I only recall his wife letting the list kmow he passed away. I miss the walking VW encyclopedia Bill May on here, but stay up with him otherwise. He just had his drag car in VA at the BugOut. 400hp!!

He printed some; I still have a few. I have a land address for him but have lost his e-mail address. Asad Ishaque is alive and well, has a Euro 1968 beetle, and we correspond occasionally. Adrian Jenkins, in New Zealand, no longer has a VW since his ’70 got totaled. I have some pieces from his old car – they live on in my Copbug. Does anyone know what became of Don Garies’ long-suffering 1949 Hebmüller? He passed away in Dallas shortly after I last spoke with him, about 7 years ago or so.

Zundfolge 1432.. heard he passed on. Gilbert (from Philippines) Suleiman Ishaq (from pakistan with his bug 'trusty') which he later handed over to his brother (Ashraf?) when he left for the UK/US?

Look for Bill May that has a picture of Kermit the frog for his profile photo.

Do you all remember Bill May? Is he still a member, I don't know if there is anyone who knows the VW bug like he does. -- Visit the VintagVW archives at http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VintagVW - Air Cooled Volkswagen Discussion List" group.
