this is one of my favourite buses - so crisp and clean - feel good

I'm on vacation :D in Dana Point CA, it's so nice to see so many really nice vw's and cars here...but not yet seen one to match DH's !

Today I have seen a 49 chevy, glorious in red, 2 x 23 window samba's, 6x EB microbus's, 4 or 5 early 911 or 912's, a really nice 914/6, a baja for sale at $2500, and loads [more than 20] old 60's-70's yanks. :mrgreen:
