James Meade and Lady Red Bug
Lady Red Bug - 1978 VW Convertible of German manufacture. James take much pride in his bright red beauty with good reason. She is one of the last of the German made Volkswagen Beetles.

Jim travels to many of California's auto shows. Here you can see his pride and joy at the Fresh Freeze Car Show in Eureka, CA. This 9/11/04 show was followed by another show a month later at Crescent City on 10/09/04. many Humbug members made the trip to see  Lady Red Bug.

Lady Red Bug with corsage
Here's a nice image of Lady Red Bug with the beautiful red corsage that Jim gave her to wear in Eureka's Rhododendron Festival Parade 2005. Jim always treats her like a lady. Once again, it's easy to see that she always stands out in a crowd
Here Jim sits, getting ready for his run at Redwood Sports Car Club's 1/27/07 Auto Cross races at the Samoa Drag Strip. Boy, did he turn heads.

"He's not gonna race that beautiful gem is he?" More than a half dozen drivers asked that question, as  well as, "What's he got in there...?  Is it some king of 'sleeper' or something?"

After his two laps of glory, Jim said, "People always remember two cars at the races... the fastest and the slowest... I think I qualify for one of those!" You Rock Jim!!!
