<p>Hello, Back in my Navy Days I tooled around in a 1974 Super Beetle.</p>
<p>The first thing I learned was to buy this book;</p>
<p>"How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive." "A Manual of Step by Step Procedures for the Compleat Idiot." By John Muir</p>
<p>Amazon has it.</p>
<p>If you own a 1979 or earlier T -1, T-2 Bus, T- 3, T-4</p>
<p>This Book is a must. </p>
<p>It has helped me home a many a times in the past. It even gives you a list of tools and spare parts you should take with you on you…</p>

Thinking of planning a family camping trip over spring break. Our break is the week after Easter. We live in So California and love the beach, but it might still be a little chilly then. Someplace warm, relatively close, fun for kids, and dog friendly....any ideas?

<p>Are we doing this, this year?</p>
<p>Per Google the Uberball Sunday date, is Feb. 2nd. 2014. That would make the campout Friday Jan. 31st thru Sunday Feb.2nd or there abouts, oughta think about reservations. We went to Brannon Island State park the following day last year to check it out It was really nice, all green and such, if interested We'll look into it, maybe a group site? How many of us were there last year? I think it was a pretty good turn out, but then the old memory isn't what…</p>

Just want one or two pics of my bus and VW guys taking an interest in MG, to show the patients I'm trying to help. <br/>If anyone has any ideas who it could have been, please give me a shout.

<p>The Tillamook (as seen in the Vermont cheese commercials) Mini Vw bus was spotted yesterday in Chappell Hill, Texas at Beaver's restaurant; Unfortunately my computer has decided that it no longer wants to send photos.</p>
