Ready for export…
In August 1957 Volkswagen exported over 5000 cars a month through the port of Lubbeck.
Many for Scandinavian countries, but also for USA and other far away destinations.
Dutch importer “Pon” back in the day…
Some cool pictures for you today out of the old box …
Ben Pon importer of Volkswagen in the Netherlands and inventor of the VW bus had nice HQ back in the day…

Back in the Day….
Volkswagen dreamin’……
WOW, the local classic car get together was fun as always…
WOW, or Winter on Wheels in full, was fun again.
We drove 6 split window buses out and gathered with all of our petrolhead friends for gas talk and coffee…
It was the Christmass edition, several cars and bikes dressed up for the occasion!
One tractor, but a cool one…
Abarth anyone?
Face mask duty everywhere, also outside, Corona rules been enforced strictly!
Tall car or small guy?
Give me wings and I can fly…
Nice line up of our favorites…
Bizar …. and there was two…:)
Despite the grey, drizzling and overcast weather a lot of full classics showed up… always nice to see, not so to fuel up….
Sleek lines, Andre Citroen knew how to draw cars…
Early oval ragtop… Standard!
Always cool to check out, and pick your choice, ragtop… or three spoke steeringwheel, in this case… both….
Where’s the goldfish swimming?
Not here…
and here neither….
Don’t miss out the next edition, every third sunday of the month, from October till March
