Road Trip - Rare VWs!

When the invitation comes through to see an amazing private collection of rare vintage Volkswagens, you do whatever necessary to attend. Taking into consideration that approximately 60 miles away is a great VW Parts swap meet the next morning, you attend the private party and leave in time to enter the swap meet area the night before. You sleep in your car, enjoy the swap meet the next morning and hit the road onice you’ve had your fill of friends and VWs and then pack up the parts you didn’t plan on buying. Come along with me on my 36 hour adventure and see firsthand some of the rarest cars in the world.  #vw #norcal #vwbug #VWBus #German #Convertible #CoachBuilt #Rometsch #Literature #vintage #Highroof #Barndoor #Binz #DoubleCab #California #RedBarn #history

It was nice to travel w Mike. Even though we were in separate cars, we talked a good part of the way.

@@EddyCollins-TZN168 I got to meet Mike at the hot vw cars and coffee His videos have been so helpful! And your videos are so inspiring! I can’t wait to get my bug good enough to hang with the “cool kids” ♥️

That Rometsch looks like a mini Mercedes 300sl with those front fender bumps! So cool.

[@EddyCollins-TZN168]

Yeah, I see what you mean. However, I would actually like to see which one would bring in more money.

[@baldeagle3161]

Man thx for taking us a long. The insight you guys have is fantastic. 🤙🏻

[@EddyCollins-TZN168]

It was great! Glad you enjoyed it!!

Hey, Eddie! Great video capturing the highlights of Mark's 2024 open house and the Red Barn Swap Meet! I loved seeing the shot of you, Mike and me having coffee at my bus! Good times. BTW, I just returned from an epic off-road adventure in the same "coffee bus" at the Arches Nat'l Park in Moab with the Lin Ottinger folks and many hard-core VW enthusiasts. Here's looking forward to seeing you again somewhere down the road! 🙂👍

[@EddyCollins-TZN168]

Thanks man. That was a lot of fun! Looking forward to seeing you at the next show.

ECONO MOTORS was Exactly a type B dealership. That is exactly what it looked like back in the 60s before it was sold off to the Quaid motors.

The grapevine aka the vehicle tester 😅

[@EddyCollins-TZN168]

Totally!!!! Don’t know if you watched the video with Stephen Nye, but if you haven’t, you need to! He tells a pretty amazing story about a bus adventure, and going over the grapevine with no brakes! 😳

[@ocavant]

Great colab guys! Next time I'll shoot it for you and you guys can tag team comment on stuff. I think it really works. I have a gimble and camera light that would help a bit.

[@EddyCollins-TZN168]

Love the idea! Thanks for offering. 🤙

[@michaelborgman303]

Witch car was your favorite Eddy ? The HR perhaps ?

[@EddyCollins-TZN168]

For sure! That’s just right up my alley.

[@WSBach]

Thank you Eddy for sharing this. These cars are so beautiful and amazing.

[@EddyCollins-TZN168]

They truly are! It’s fun to see the evolution over the years. Glad you enjoyed it.
