VW Beetles all in a row. |
|
Vehicles have been lovingly restored to a condition better than the original |
On Saturday, July 15, a large crowd enjoyed checking out the premiere vintage VW show in the Pacific Northwest!
|
More than one owner picked up their van in Germany and traveled Europe or bought their van in the U.S. and followed the Grateful Dead around the country |
This event has been staged for 40 years, primarily at the College by the Cascade Kombis vintage VW club, a non-profit organization.
|
Waitresses on roller skates brought your order to your car |
Visitors enjoyed the cool vintage cars, campers and busses, picked up gear at the swap, and won some amazing prizes for $1!
|
$1 tickets paid off in big prizes |
The show concluded with the awards presentation and grand prize raffle. Read the full show details

*Original info in the caption was not quite correct. Here's the info: Older VWs didn't have a fuel gauge, only a fuel petcock. If you were low on fuel ( = engine cutting out) you had to switch the petcock to the 'reserve' position, while you were driving. The lever was located below the dashboard.
