June 28, 1986 – The best day of my life

Just over 32 years ago, I fell in love twice on the same day. I guess that this would make this the single most eventful day in my life.

Sometime in the afternoon, I went for a test drive of a Sea Blue 1966 Volkswagen Bug. I loved it, put down $800 dollars, and purchased my first car. Thus began my love affair with air-cooled Volkswagens.

Later that evening, I was introduced to my future wife, and thus began my relationship with the love of my life (even more than VW’s).

It is pretty mind blowing that both of these significant events just happen to have occurred on the same day in my life.

I fell in love with air-cooled Volkswagens over 30 years ago. I want to keep the love and passion for vintage VW's alive and share my stories with others.
