The bug is currently hibernating for the winter, I have owned this bug for nearly seven years now. This is a hobby and an adventure taking us to new places and making memories along the way. This 62 ragtop beetle is currently the only vintage vehicle I own. It’s a “rolling work in progress” it’s not perfect, but so much fun

Old 27 Tour
Cruising along Michigan’s historic Old 27 route from DeWitt to Harrison in my 1962 Volkswagen Bug was a nostalgic adventure steeped in charm and character. The Bug’s air-cooled engine hummed steadily as we wound through quaint small towns, vibrant farmland, and stretches of tree-lined road, its classic curves drawing smiles and waves from fellow enthusiasts. The open windows let in the warm summer breeze, carrying the scent of fresh-cut grass and the occasional whiff of vintage motor oil, while the simple joy of driving a piece of automotive history made every mile a celebration of Michigan’s scenic beauty and the timeless spirit of the open road.
