 James Meade - 1978 VW Convertible - German - What a beautiful place to enjoy a bit to eat and visit with fellow car enthusiasts. James' bright red convertible stands out even in this croud of American Classics. It should, because it's the last model from Germany. In 1978 Volkswagen's factory in Emden, Germany made their last Beetle and James is lucky enough to own one.
Pat and Mervin - 1971 Standard 1600 Beetle.  Pat and Mervin have  had this little gem for 6 months.  At time of purchase it had 80,000 original miles.  They have put approximately 3,000 miles on it in that time because it's so fun to cruise around in. Merv, who has worked for the county as a road/highway engineer for 40 years, and his wife Pat, have a special love for our Humboldt County roads. They have replaced some external parts including a new muffler.  All internal parts are original.  They did repaint it to very near its original color.  Pat says, "Being our age we enjoy over night trips.  Nothing extravagant but a good motel and a nice dinner with friends." The picture to the right is Pat and Mervin Moe, along with their little green gem, at one of the Humbugs meetings.

image of bill's purple vert Bill Taylor and Family - 1979VW Convertible - German   This is Bill's Harlequin 1979 'vert. Her claim to fame is she's the last of the breed. The Super Beetle convertibles, after 1979, were all "hecho en Mexico" (made in Mexico). Bill feels the quality was never the same since the Germans quit building them... PLUS... this little beaut is painted with the amazing Harelquin paint that changes colors depending on angle and lighting.
