BatVOLKS ART

Here are some ideas for BatVOLKS posters or shirt design or sticker.


This design appeared on one of the BatVOLKS/VWCP-Batangas Shirt that the group wore during the April 6, 2008 Guinness World Record Run.

Just like the old stickers on your notebooks or pencil cases when you're still a kid...



Care to appear on a comic book?

SUPER SWEET: Dan's 1303S

Dan maybe the Big Brother for the BatFolks but still has that teen spirit when it comes to VWs! He is one of the founders of this VW nuts club and is a dedicated members and a true enthusiast. He has this particular VW that he loves (and invested time and money in this precious German Metal).

He own this pristine 1303S (Super Beetle). It won Best Stock Car and Best Stock Engine during the 2007 Volkswagenan VW Show in Lucena City conducted by VWCP Quezon Chapter. It still has its original motor, complete with all that period correct parts upto the lust nut and bolts! The interior is in mint condition, the original leather is still intact and looks like like it's sewn yesterday. The dashboard is just like its first day in the dealership.


It sports EMPI Style 8-Spoke Wheels with EMPI Centercaps. The exterior also includes nice clean square bumpers with bumper guards. Paint color is Diamond Green.

THE RAT NAMED HERSHEY

This is Hershey. Engr. Onin's Rat Look Bug: Runs well, but dirty as a rat! It is probably the first of its kind in Batangas.

The First Batangueño Volks Rod!



This bug started its life as a 1979 bug. Painted flatblack and lowered to kiss the weed. Its interior includes 1968 stock front seats (from Bacchus), no rear seats, an EMPI Hurst-style Shifter and Roller Pedal. It has a stock 1200cc engine that gives this rat its heartbeat.

The following pictures shows how she looked before:

BatVOLKS/VWCP Batangas' First Meeting for 2009

BatVOLKS/VWCP-Batangas' family is growing bigger and better...

Last January 2, 2009 was the First Meeting of the year for the BatFolks. It's well attended and new members signed in before and after the meeting. There are 25 members during the meeting ot of the 34 total number of members.


BIG MAN TITO'S PRIDE IN PINK

This is Big Man Tito's pride... a 1974(?) Brazilian Beauty. This bug went through many struggles just to make it look and feel good. It sports 14 inch Minilite wheels wrapped with 165/60R14 rubber. The interior is finished on cream and off-white leather... love that clean look. A 13" sporty steering wheel replace the stock steering wheel, Big Man Tito likes it that way. 1303S rear fenders were put as well as the elephant tail light assembly and lenses.

This is a Pink Bug with a Black Heart. The engine tins are all painted flat black and also the air-cleaner, engine and alternator pulley and everything in the engine bay.
