Sounds like you all are having fun! I am looking forward to getting to one of your events. What are the classes? Do you run a stock class?

We are pleased to have a good VW person on board. I can see that you are also a very busy person! I am gratified with any time you can give to share your events and stories, but it is really important for VWs that you get all the VW events posted. Just the two sites you showed me have at least a half dozen events to get posted. :-) Luckily, they don't take much time and please link them back to their original sites and emails. That kind of germination helps both sites and improves the chances that folks looking for events on the search engines find VW car shows, races, etc. There are so many enthusiasts that go without the proper information and miss great events.

Tell me about your first VW. Mine was a '65 tan Beetle that I bought in California. By the time my friend drove it back east for me it had lost its front bumper. I bought one to replace it from JC Whitney! It had a great gas heater which as the years went by, was the "blue print" for heaters in both my bugs and busses. :-)

PS It was like this one, though I don't think it it is the exact car. I lost my photos years ago. I traded it for a red bus in 1973.

Welcome Kathy!!!
It's great to have you on board! I am looking forward to great photos (and maybe videos) of your favorite VWs, as well as others of different "wheels" and events you enjoy. It is good to write about your "wheels" adventures on the blog, as we all enjoy stories from our members. Also, please tell me more (or write a blog!) about SoutheastVW. Is it a club or a group?
One of the real strengths of our website is the feature that any member can add events whenever they find one that we have overlooked! You do not have to "submit" through emails or the postal service, etc.
Please invite your family and friends as this helps the site grow and improves your social network communications. Add me as a site Friend, too, and I will keep you up to date on announcements and special events.
Sincerely,
Mike Thies
PS I love VWs. It used to be PunchBUG when I was a kid.

A Bite of History - Marcos  By Mike Thies

A Bite of History - Marcos 

By Mike Thies

The Marcos was one of those wonderfully unconventional British sports car companies that could only have come from the postwar racing world. The company was founded in 1959 by Jem Marsh and aerodynamicist Frank Costin, with the name Marcos coming from Marsh and Costin. Costin brought serious aircraft and racing design experience to the project, and that influence showed up immediately in the cars: low frontal area, light weight,…

A Judge’s View from Pinehurst: Sandhills Motoring Expo 2026 by Mike Thies

The 2026 Sandhills Motoring Expo Concours in the Village was one of those days that reminds you why we do this. Held Sunday, May 24, in the historic Village of Pinehurst, the event brought together more than 130 judged automobiles representing over 40 manufacturers, and from this judge’s point of view, it was a first-class field, a well-run operation, and a genuinely enjoyable day with owners who were proud to…
