You are correct sir. The PU was used in the Mexican road race in The Love Bug. Apparently the frame got pretty mangled when they filmed it too.
Bumping this one back to the top. I'm still searching for photos of my car or any of the other Herbie's that the Brucker's owned. I believed they...
I'll have to upload my pics to fotki.
I'm excited to see this all go down in Pittsburgh. I've got two cars in the show. Now the weird question. If I wanted to have Gene sign the...
In my case he isn't signing my car. He says he built my car (one of the original Herbie movie cars) but I know he didn't. But I do have a few...
Cool, you guys are great. I was trying to figure out how much scratch I should bring, how many items, etc. I'll let you know what happens.
Ok, I know a lot of you guys are out in Cali and see George at shows from time to time. At events, does he charge for autographs? I'm headed to...
I took a ton of pictures, I had my Herbie entered in the show. [IMG] Here's my full album. It includes other years shows also.
Since it now appears that licenseplates.tv is no longer making Cali plates, does anyone else know where you can get a quality reproduction plate now?
Yes please do!
I've only seen a handful of pictures floating around. Nothing great though. You can usually find old post cards for sale on eBay.
Yep, I've got the bill of sale from 84 when Harrah's sold the car, but I have nothing on to who sold it. I've also got copies of the Nevada title,...
GZ, that's a great story. I had not heard of the Rick Cole connection before. I'm working on trying to establish a timeline for my Herbie and I...
That sign is awesome.
Here's another former resident of Cars of the Stars. My Herbie stunt car. [IMG] at the time though, he looked like this. Anyone remember seeing...
The dents could have been there from before. They probably did more than one take of the scene, and it's kinda hard to have more than one...
I didn't buy Herbie back then. I was only a young'n then. It's been throught a couple private owners and another museum in the last 20 some odd...
The original car from the show exists in a museum. I think down in Tennessee or somewhere and it's the only one ever used on the show. I have the...
It happens all the time with movie cars. And then there's the show boats like George Barris who have clones that he flaunts as original and no one...
You probably remember my VW from the museum then?
Man, where'd you find the old firestones?
I don't know how I had never stumbled across this in my searches in the past, and here, my buddy Kool1's on here helping me. I'm the owner of the...
