Most Volksworld readers have read about Kobus Cantraine. He is one of the most well known European VW/Porsche
enthusiasts and a member in DAS. If you need some really rare part for your VW or 356, Kobus is the man. Here
are some shots of his last trip to California last summer.
BFY Obsolete Parts
Some shots from BFY Obsolete Parts' show-room, should look familiar if you read Hot VWs.
If you buy a lot of nice stuff (like BRMs, Ansens, 356A brakes, pop-outs, NOS sheetmetal), you need a crate,
if you need really handy crate that can move on it's own, buy a Type II. Like in this case fine, probably
rust-free, California car..
Cruise night at Bravo Burger
A small cruise night at Bravo Burger in Huntington Beach, hosted by the Uberalles VW Club. On the left
is a photo of Karmann Ghia owners heaven (or hell). That stack of Ghias is quite impressive.
FAT Performance
Picture of the FAT Performance building and a pretty sick Looker built by Jair Valle who used to work
for FAT. Kobus mentioned that Jair can build bitching engine combinations.. hmm..
DAS Triple Burn-out
Three really beautiful Der Autobahn Scrapers cars, from left to right; '57 of Freddy, '62 of Twins (which still remains stolen)
and '67 of Xavier.
Freddy's Notch
A photo of Frederic Peeters latest acqusition (1500S Nothcback which he found from museum in France, museum quality is the
best base for a project car, assuming that the restoration job is done properly or the car is untampered low mileager)
and a tour photo of two (Freddy and Kobus) sleepy Belgians.
