No picture (my cell phone never works for some reason...), but I saw a bright orangey-red Beetle convertible cruising down the highway. It appeared to be around a 1970-ish non-SuperBeetle version in nice shape too. Did not recognize it...

I saw a very nice silver blue 2 Dr Corvair at the intersection of Interurban and the no.1 in Victoria last night.
Shortly afterwards I saw a nice black Speedster replica on Government Street. I've seen this car a lot in the Victoria area lately.

I saw a very stripped 1950's single cab heading over Rutherford Road towards Hammond Bay on the back of a flat deck truck non Wednesday afternoon. Anyone know anything about it on here?
I also spotted a very nice yellow 1970/71 Ghia coupe in James Bay today. It looked very solid and original, with the exception of the wheels, which looked like they had come from a Vanagon. I didn't think to take a photo at the time.

Did anybody spot a lowered bug with really wide rear fenders and huge back tires heading toward Port Alberni around nood today (Monday)?. I only got a flash look at it as traffic was nuts around us but it looked about as far from "stock" as you could get. Kind of a pale purple colour, some pastel or other like it anyway. Stan

If it's the orange 1970 Ghia in Don's pictures from the Ladysmith show, it lives in Chemainus, on Chemainus Road. The owner used to be a ticket agent for the Crofton - Saltspring ferry. His name escapes me right now.

As seen on West Saanich road a couple months back as an attention getter for a mushroom farm. An Early Bay looking better than some I have seen for sale lately. But who knows what it looks like underneath...
