VW Action today with my Granddaughter and my Son..... yes in a Bay!!
Had an Awesome day, loads of Mega Dubs and decent weather.
Local Guy Mark P picked up his first trophy today which was more than well deserved after his recent completion of Jerry (His bus).
Only a few pics of the many awesome buses at the show.
