West FL GTG 08/07

Here are some pictures I took of our cars at the Steak & Shake. Enjoy

We are definatly going to have to do this again. I had a blast! I am thinking that when the weather starts cooling off a little. Maybe we could all go to the drive-in or somthing?

great pics. Even better time. It was great meeting you all. And yes Celeste, a cool weather GTG would be great- especially to do a cruise with the windows down.

Who's NBC is that? I don't recognize it? Or am I just ditzy?

Steak and Shake! Hooray!

Cool cars. I forgot all about steak and shake, I lived in the midwest for a year.

That NBC my dear belongs to Deb better known as TampaDub. She's been an orger for quite some time. Her bug is very hot. I hope that she does an extensive photo thread of "Powder". Even more I hope she chimes in here a lot more. Deb is pretty cool and will keep you laughing; her passion for the new beetle is awesome crazy- a true orger indeed

I had a wonderful GTG! It was so nice to sit with you all. To laugh and talk! I needed that so much! I thank you all for being there. Here are pics. Pretty much all the same. But the way I see it is you can never have too many pics of your bug!

All Right Deb Great pics. I'm digging the rear view pic- good stuff. We've got to do another GTG soon. That Burrito night that Xscribe was talking about was sounding good. He's a funny dude.

That looks like a great start to get a regular GTG going. I'm all for the drive-in.

Thanks for posting pics so I could see what I missed.

wow. it looks like you guys had an absolute great time. really wish i would have checked the org right before i left so i could have gotten that cell number. guys i broke down on park road in plant city (pictures to come) i thought it was the alternator or battery, changed both and she started right back up, then i took off thinking everything was normal and my check engine light is on, airbag light is on and im only getting 9psi boost so something is really up with Bailey.

Hey Skinna keep my cell# for the next time we do the GTG. Yep it was an excellent time by all. I was really digging how we all seemed to click right away. We sat down @ Steak and Shake and enjoyed lots of small talk and laughs a plenty. We've really got to do another one soon.

Xscribe did mention that there is a burrito night GTG at Mo's that they have- I wouldn't mind checking that out. We'll meet soon my man- looking forward to it.

Sorry to hear about the problems with the car. Hope you can make it to the next one. A GTG at Moe's or a movie at the drive in, anything it possible. Saturday at the Bk is always on.
Here is a friend of mine in his bus going to eat at Chili's.

yea, i still havent totally figured out what the problem is with Bailey yet. she seems to be running great, the check engine light is finally off but the airbag light is still on and shes still only getting 8-9psi of boost.i have an appointment at the dealer just to get the airbag light checked out and then i have to send off the computer to get it reflashed by neuspeed. i think thats the problem with the boost. i had an awesome idea for my headliner and some small pieces in my car but i totally screwed it up so im not showing anyone until i fix it.

Do you care to share your headliner and trim ideas with us or are you gonna wait until the big reveal? Whatever you do, please do a step by step photo journal for us DIY'ers.
