Ace cafe VW meet.

The March VW meeting at the Ace Cafe had a good turn out of vehicles, as well as the die hard visitors there were quite a few new VW's I haden't seen before.

This bright orange beetle had a roof chop with canvas sun roof.

It also had early indicators, nerf bars..

Frenched rear lights, hot rod style and...

Super straight body.

This was mad. No body work what-so-ever just netting, not sure I'd like to drive it on the road on a cold March evening, but....

It looked as though it would be great fun up in the sand dunes on the beach!

Not a very good photo, but this was real nice.
Both VW beetles but, oh so different
Lovely Karmann Ghia, although it was a later model it was still very nice.

Very clean and straight..

This single crew cab split is a regular up the Ace.
I do like this...

Very clean split screen camper.
If Carlsberg made campers... probably the best bus in the world.!

Another new bay I hadn't seen before....
It had these green lights under each wheelarch...

Errr.. Umm...

Fair play to this guy.. he was enjoying his crew cab bay
This guy bought these wicked lights off e-bay, they are sealed beam units for a Mini, but a bit of cutting and with the aid of a hammer they fitted perfectly... these would look nice on my bus!!

I do like wide steel wheels with hub caps.. must be my hot rod background.

Darren from Dunstable Dubbers always gets a good spot.. he must get there early
I must have spent 20 minutes reading all the stickers in Darren's windows.

This clean looking bug was parked outside on the road.
Inside the Ace, this is the stage area where they regualry have bands playing.

Good food, tea / coffee and a decent pint... what else do you need?
