Here are my Volksfest 2018 photos, let's start with following Chris into the show after registering on the other side of the park this year. It was fun driving over that grass field
The bus is framed nicely between 2 different but equally nice Beetles
This is setting up, though it could be taking down couldn't it, can't remember his name but I think I bought a few manuals from this guy including a Bentley Bus manual with, according to Russ, the all important COLOUR wire diagrams. $10...score!
Is Notchback Don posing for this one?
HTR has done some nice bodywork on his '73 highttop, always nice to see this daily driver at the show...
Above, a couple from the lower mainland who bought this bus from someone else in Canada who in turn had imported it from Sweden. This is apparently the original factory paint job that was special ordered.
Above right, WCP's handy work continues to amaze with his bespoke bay...
Not sure who owns this bus but it has been to the show before...
This one reminds me of Brent's old tintop, I should have bought that bus...
I love the "2WD" insignia on this custom Westfalia from the mainland, a very clever re-imagining of the bay window bus. This reminds me of a custom Hot Wheels bus, you know, the ones you'll never see in real life
Above, random shot captures some of the action at the show...
This Harlequin has been to the show over the years...
Early in the show at T-Shirt central...
Everyone loves to share in the Bus experience!
There's that mechanic from Nanaimo again, he was hanging out at Hightop Rob's roost...
...and there is HTR chillin' in what was unofficially the Nanaimo camp...
Custom shop from the mainland...
Either they are really good at making their bus look lived in for the show, or they actually traveled to Volksfest
The unique Taylor-mobile!
Volksfest random shot...
So many conversations so little Volksfest time...
Organizer buses...
Above, that Beetle on the left is really low!
This is a very interesting split Beetle, I'll bet Russ knows something about it...
A Doka still being used for work...
A very original looking '73 (I believe) Westfalia...
Here we see the show winding down...
The Nanaimo crew discussing this and that...
Above, the Brit-mobile!
An interesting shot looking toward the beach...
Brian's Ghia makes it's long awaited debut, beautiful car...
Trying to improve cooling for Crazybrit's bus...
Above left, blue and white '66 bus recently acquired by a VVWC organizer, great to see another air-cooled vehicle in the family!
I agree with Don, this one is cool, time to make some vroom vroom noises...
And there we have it, as always time went by way too fast and I should have taken more pictures and talked to more people. However, I did spend a lot more quality time with MIACVW members this year.
