Who here also has a non-off-road ACVW?

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

Here's the GF's '74 Super. And my non-ACVW, non-off-road '84 GTI. And of course the off-road-ready '04 Yellow Lab :lol: .

Little OT but I wish I had this one back.
67 Drag Bug.
Went from me to Ohio, to San Antonio Tx, to Oregon.
Never got any pics of it but found this one on TOS a few years ago.

Track? we have hundreds of miles of trails. I guess you could call the roads they race motorcycles on a track. There is a 100 mile off road motorcycle race that passes behind my house once a year.

Where you at DeMin? I'm near Reno, Nv.

Right now my only off road ride is my 61 single cab.

I'm up in Oregon, but you're only 8-10 hrs away. Love that Reno area. My Chenowth came from a place about 30 miles N of Reno.

3.5 hrs from Boise puts you fully on the dry side. I thought you were a wet sider? I spent a lot of my youth in Powell Butte. I have family in Bend and in south-west Redmond overlooking the gorge.

No other ACVW's here, just the Baja project.

Very dry. I call our place "Brown Acres." Two hours directly north of Bend, on the OR/WA border. Probably more like 4hrs to Boise, now that I think about it. Water water everywhere and none to irrigate:

Turbo, that '67 is sweet. My buddy has a gorgeous '67. Someday, oh yes, someday it will be mine.

Yup Turbo. Washington on the left, Oregon on the right. This was our last time out on a rare windless evening (late Sept- I launch on the John Day River and if its not nuke'n on the Mighty Columbia, then we'll head out there -Not me in the pic but a deputy I taught to wake surf).
