Topic: Great Canadian VW Show 2010

My first time to the annual show. Unfortunately I'm not driving an ACVW at the moment. After oogling the cars and long talks with other fanatics I hit the part swap area. Great prices for small stuff I needed but unbelievably I scored an NOS heat exchanger for a 72-74 bus for $160. Still in the box but the box was a little worse for wear. Too bad he only had one!

Great day anyway. 18'C and threatened rain but never did.

Apparently this Thing was used by the military in the middle east. Must be a story there. I didn't stop to find out more.

The big stereo crowd was represented.

The coveted Samba 21 window. Every show needs one at least.
