@ Imran

Thanks for the pics of VW rallies/drives. In your excitement to share these moments you have forgotten to enter the particulars of your own bug. Please do so asap.


@ Msm

Congrats for being the first person to enter your bug here. I would like to have the Chassis and Engine numbers too. If you like to keep them private please feel free to pmail them to me.

Btw, I was at Basit's today and he was asking me whether you are still interested in selling your 74. I dont suggest you do that and buy the converted red 65-66 instead as you had proposed.

Regards

[msm]

@ Asad thanx but the response of others made me feel so bad, it seems like KHI don't have beetle lovers i was expecting some thing different neway.


@ Imran

@ msm
I share your feeling on the observation you have made.

@ vdubber
Thanks a lot for your participation here. I did not know you had two bugs, have never seen your Super.

@ Imran
At long last your bugs info is here.

@ all
We need the Chassis and Engine numbers for the list. These numbers help point out many things. If there is any 'purdah' here, please forward the same to my email address.

VWCOP stands for Volkswagen Club Of
Pakistan
, there should (technically) be a chapter in every city. It's up to members like asad to spread the word, and who better to handle KHI than someone who knows as much as him.


@asad
keep up the great work(Y) and organize a meet/run some time soon so we can get some pics of the great cars in KHI which have been under wraps for too long.

[imranazeem]

Oh come-on people wake up. We are trying to do something new in this city, we require response some participation to kick off VWCOP (KHI).

The success of VWCOP (KHI) is in the best interest on all VW lovers of this city.

Here are some pics of my super for your viewing pleasure. Though the car is unrestored at the moment, I plan to have a full body off resto once I sort out a few things at my end. Had been after this particular car for a very long time….not to mention that much of the body is still on original paint and the interior too is 39 yrs old!!!!

@Doc


Lets arrange a meet on this weekend. I'll try and spread the word around to those who're not on pakwheels if you confirm the time and place. Its about time that we gathered tha Karachi vws. I would suggest a drive down on Super Highway till the Toll Plaza. Lets see what others have to say.

@Mohsin uncle, I think 'Grey Beard' would be a good nick for your bug.
