The picture is of my wife Lisa, and me Gary when our westy was featured in Ultra VW. I've been into aircooled VW's since school. My first beetle was a 1962 1200. Unfortunately I had to let it go after I bought my first house. I bought Lisa a restored 1968 1300 beetle in the hope of her passing her test. Sadly she didnt, so it also had to go. I've recently converted Lisa and taken her to shows with me which we both really enjoy. We became part of Splitterz after looking on VZi a few years ago. Our bus has now finished its resto, below are the pictures of our old VWs and our westy before it was restored, and how it looks now.
