Treffen is an annual caravan of vintage VWs that journeys down Highway 1 from the Canadian border to the Mexican border. This is their 17th trip, but it was the first time they had a “Show & Shine” in Pacific Grove. There were dozens of beautiful Buses, Bugs and (my beloved) Karmann Ghias.
They’re continuing southward today, and if I didn’t have to work I’d position myself on the Old Coast Road above Bixby Bridge to get some great video. You can follow their progress here.
If you have owned a V-dub then you are attracted to these pictures. I really like the Kermit sticker in the window of the appropriately colored van. And the years with the hinging front cafe windows.
The Kermit sticker van had an appropriately dressed driver, too. All in green. I’ve never owned a VW, but it’s on the list for sure.
