Old Time member has returned...

[transporter]

Hello everbody some of you may remember me from long time ago way back in the early nineties.
I had a 1968 bay LWH797F that was eventually featured in volksworld magazine christmas 1997,but before that i had numerous VW's like my burgundy/white dormobile,white panel van and yellow 1302.
I first started going to the club meets at the sparking clog in radcliffe on a wednesday night when Jason was the chairman
who had the cadbury beetle,anyone remember him?
Anyway i last attended regularly when the meets were at the jolly carter on bury bolton road,some of the old members i remember were Heath and his sister Jane,Nick who had the green 67,Andy and Sara,Ben,Tim,Duncan dissorderly! (who could talk a glass eyeball to sleep!)John and Dave with the ford powered bay who was always stoned and others whom i cant remember thier names.
I am still well into Vw's and currently own five between me and my girlfriend,to list- A 1956 oval,a 1975 1303,a 1981 mk1 golf GTI with G60 power! A 1993 golf clipper cabriolet and a 1998 Transporter T4 reimo camper. I have had many others since i last seen some of you.
If you can remember me then lets have a catchup and maybe the next time im up in manchester we can hookup or maybe hookup at a show this year,i currently live in St.Agnes in cornwall so its not often im up that end of the country.
Lokkin forward to hearing back from some or all of you!

I remember Jason with the cadburys bug

He used to work alongside my stepdad at swintex, he told me how to to do my first engine swap on my first 1303 i had when I was a teenager

I still Know him of sorts, Havent seen him for a while, last time was a good few years ago at the papermakers at pilsworth meet, hes into his V8's at the moment, last I heard he was playing with a ford pop with 5L chevvy in it

His old cadburys bug is up on parkhills estate somewhere on a driveway, behind LA pizza on bolton road, aparently its wrecked now... will have to have a driveby to see if I can see it, my mum lives up there
