End of an Era - The VW Bus Goes Out Of Production: Hippies Around the World Mourn
    #19259660 - 12/11/13 11:19 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

Yes, it is true.  Production of the venerable VW Bus (called the "Kombi" in Brazil) will now come to an end after 62 years in production.

Hippy suicides hit an all-time high.

The original was a work of art.
That looks like the work of a crazed committee.

We had one for a while when I was a kid.  My parents drove it until it died and then got some other fucking lemon; a mint green AMC Hornet station wagon.  Boy was that thing a piece of shit.

Wow, that is the ugliest car I've seen in a while. And before any of you redneck libertardian hippies say "well, that's just like you're opinion, man", I've studied industrial design so I know my shit.

1972, I was 15, and toured Europe, Turkey and Morocco with my parents in a pop up like this.

We had one in 1972 as well!  It was the classic red one with the white top.  For a family of 7 it was transportation.

I prefer this one, the split screen.


It has character and soft lines, a rarity in modern car design. They have held their value very well, so I can't be the only one who thinks they look good.
I love old cars, modern cars are so undistinguished, its as if all car companies copy each other.

Your picture is the mk2, which I'll agree isn't so hot

Our van slept 4...
I didn't know too much about engines back then, but I remember ours was 4 cylinders with 2 carburetors. :crazy3:  There's probably some members on here that only know of one type of carb.:bongload:... :seniors: . . . :peace:
