Spotted a couple of bugs out in 2 different pastures this past week or so. Look to me a 74 and the other is a late 66, maybe 67. Pretty sad shape from what I can tell but I'll bet they are "show winners".
I'll have to track down the owners and find out the scoop, etc.
Dumb ass. Where do you see your name mentioned in my post ? I do have a bug that came from a pasture and has won shows. And unlike you I can prove it with pictures and trophies.
Now prove everything you just said Mario. Who owned the car when it was shown ? Any pictures ? Prove that you did the work on it and it wasn't changed any before the show. You can't as you are lying as usual.
are you a vw in a pasture? (probably more likely a "pie"), if not, the thread can't be about you, n*****ts...
yeah, that show winner... you told me face to face(about the only time you are honest) that your 64 was only "daily driver" quality and that it had never shown at bugout... fast forward a few years to you finding a plaque then suddenly it "won" bugout.... you are a tool...
you don't need parts from old cars when polyester is so cheap...
I saw his awards picture and first thing that popped into my head is I wonder who is missing theirs. I also noticed the picture of his 64 is from quite a distance so no details or workmanship are showing.
same pic he's been showing for years... but from folks that have been up close and personal to the car, it is as Mario described to me, nothing more than a daily driver quality car... nothing wrong with that, but to brag about "show quality" then explain shitty work with "my customers just want daily drivers" shows the he actually realizes that there's a difference... of course the pics I posted links to don't show daily driver "quality" it shows lack of talent...
There is a '58 or so sunroof Bug in the field next to Boondocks USA (Rt
35, Iowa). It has settled into the ground up to the hubcaps, and is filled with dirt. All a guy has to do is carve out the dirt sticking through the rust holes and it's a SHOW WINNING CAR! I wonder if it ain't Mario's first restoration.
LOL can't go with out talking about me I see.... Well I'm doing the restoration and getting paid well, Well all you do is set behind a key board and bitch... lets see your work
I had a great time at the Farmington show hope all did.
no one said anything to or about you... but you were foaming at the mouth waiting for something like this... sad, really..
that's funny....
no one was bitching, dimwit, a comment was made on what terrible welding looks like... it must be true "the bit dog yelps loudest"... you sure are yelping..
lets play a different game this time Marihack... instead of seeing someone elses work who isn't claiming to do restorations(as you claimed you do above), lets look at YOUR work...

care to comment on how great your work is? Your silence probably says more than you can, but give it a try.
guess you didn't "win" any second place shows or you'd be bragging by now...
He was probably being given a swirly by a "satisfied" customer.
Possibly he was sailing with another "satisfied" customer and got lucky when the anchor chain came lose from him while he was sinking to the bottom of the sea.
You guys really need to get a life, Or at least do some work on your cars instead of bitching about the show winning cars I do. But keep bitching it might do some good someday, its not like your getting anything else done.
I've been trying to stay out of this fruitless tug-o-war, but I gotta tell you... if it never STOPS, there IS no "last laugh". Claiming the rights to it and then keeping the thing going is not getting the last laugh. Would you all please stop the pissing contest. It stinks here because of it. I declare NO WINNER so you all can just stfu.
