61 Double Cab
Yesterday a semi was delivering trusses to a house down the street and around the corner from me; when he turned the corner, the back end of the load caught the rearmost hoop on my double cab, and pulled both hoops forward, which bent them up pretty good, and dented the tailgate.

Here's a shot of my cargo floor. I put a shop light underneath to highlight the holes. The 2nd image is with 25% brightness correction

If you have to cut out a chunk of the bed supports, it's probably a good sign that that kewel new air cleaner you picked up on sale at Pep Boys isn't really right for your bus.

More crap from where the rear-end was sectioned on. The top portion is the new piece; the origin is underneath. They overlap by about 1 1/2"

More crap from where the rear-end was sectioned on. This weld is sorta almost complete, but crappy. They also didn't run the taillight wires thru the frame and up the channel like they're supposed to go, but instead brought them over the shelf and across the edge of the battery tray.

While my new double cab was being towed home, one of the tiedown straps on the tow truck broke, causing the bus to rear-end the tow truck.

While cleaning out my wife's Grandfather's house after he passed away, we found this article clipped from the local paper for Elgin, Texas. After doing a little research with some of the sports info on the flipside of the clipping, I aged it at around 1968. Where's that double cab now!!!

Something about this pic just begs mocking! I guess the artist doesn't suffer from VW on the brain.
