Another car in Scott’s stable

The retired guy needed something else to keep him busy because a Ghia, bug and notchback wasn’t enough…

It sports a top notch sand drag chassis with a 2332cc & 2 speed VW trans. As you can see, the paddles have been traded for slicks and the trans is being swapped out for a more strip friendly version. Hopefully it will be ready for a few test passes at Irwindale soon.

11 club members went to Europe and all we got were… pictures

A record number of DKP club members attended Hessisch Oldendorf (HO) and European Bug-In (EBI) in 2013. Those of us that didn’t go were subjected to tall tales and long stories, but it sounds like they all had a great time and everyone boasted of the great hospitality they received from the European VW Community. Here’s a small selection of photos from Scott and Steve.

An Honorable New Member

It’s not often that we induct an honorable new member into the ranks of DKP.  As a matter of fact, I can only recall two such members… Gene Berg and Darrell Vittone.  Now there is a third such member; Dean Kirsten.  Deano has been a fixture in the VW scene for as long as I can remember and has supported us all through his involvement at Hot VW’s Magazine.  With the completion of his fourteen year project ’67 sedan, we welcome him.  CHEERS!!IMG_0774
