We’ll I didn’t expect anything and arrived late, but Leakoilers are an amazing bunch. Quite a turnout for no planning.
I guess there were some “kind of famous VW people” there, but I can’t say I knew them well. Brandon did so he’ll fill in those details. I did meet the guy that did the ‘Light Bus.’ Kind of a cool story. Also the guy that painted the original in 1968 and this reproduction. Leakoilers hung out outside and it wasn’t long before the people associated with the bus abandoned their posts inside and come out to hang with LEAKOIL. Some of the Michigan folks showed too.

Yes, Robert Skinner of Skinners Classics which is probably one of the top VW restoration shops in the country was on hand, as well as Dr. Bob Hieronimus who painted the OG Light Bus as well as the reproduction. They were nice enough to come out and talk with all of us outside too!
