PRESIDENT’S CORNER

e are now in February of 2021 and COVID-19 is still having a major impact on our club activities. Based on our state rules, we are able to host driving events, which include Autocross, Drivers Ed, and driving tours. We are still not able to hold typical social events such as the Valentines Dinner, Holiday Party, Porsches and Pancakes etc. Hopefully as the vaccine distribution picks up, the tide will turn and social events will be possible in the near future. Our February line up of driving events will include: Scenic Drive to Fountain Hills on February 6, Drivers Ed at AMP on February 13, Autocross at AMP on February 20, and a Historic Drive to Prescott on February 27. Make sure you sign up early as these events sell out quickly. I have scheduled a charity driving tour event on Sunday, March 21st to Boyce Thompson Arboretum, near Superior, Arizona. The proceeds for the charity will go to St. Mary’s Food Bank. This will combine a nice drive to Superior and a walk around the Arboretum grounds. You can take the walk at your leisure, or join a guided tour. Here is the link to the event: https://az.pca.org/event/charity-drive-to-boyce-thompson-arboretum/ Please sign up and help those struggling to feed themselves. The cost is $50. per car for the charity drive. The cost to enter the Arboretum is a separate $15 charge per person. This month we are conducting an on-line vote to approve the proposed revisions to our AZPCA Bylaws (the bylaws are in this issue on page 40). Here is the link for voting: https://az.pca.org/proposed-bylaw-changes/ Our club has the great honor of hosting Treffen from May 5 to May 9, 2021. Rook Younger and his committee have been hard at work preparing for the event. The host hotel is the iconic Camelback Inn. This is going to be an amazing event for our region to welcome PCA members from all over North America. “Experience four days of driving, dining, and exploring” in the Valley of the Sun and Central Arizona. Plans include driving tours to Sedona, Prescott, Mingus Mountain/Jerome, as well as to Bartlett Lake, Fountain Hills, and South Mountain/Wrigley Mansion. Be sure to sign up. Registration starts on February 24th at 3 pm (EST). It apparently sells out quickly. Here is the link: https://treffen.pca.org/. The link for the Camelback Inn is: https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/phxcb-jw-marriott-scottsdale-camelback-innresort-and-spa/ I would like to add a new feature to our club’s website. It will be called ‘My Favorite Drives’. I would ask our members to submit to me their favorite local driving routes in their Porsches, along with route directions. This will share all great driving routes with all our members. The next Online Monthly meeting will be held on Wednesday, Feb 3rd. I hope to see you soon at an event or online meeting. Mark

MEET A MEMBER

he AZPCA is made up of a wonderful group of members. As Going Places Editor, I would like to introduce featured members, Kenneth Allan and Jean Mitchell.

1. When did you join PCA?

I joined PCA June 1986, with the Sacramento Valley Region. I just transferred in to the AZ Region in October.

2. What Porsche(s) do you have?

Currently, I only have one, a Jet Black (Metallic Black) 2015 Cayman GTS. I have had others over the years.

3. Where are you from?

Originally, I was born in Long Beach, California and grew up in Orange County. In 1976, I moved to Northern California (Sacramento Area) for a job promotion. I lived in Northern California for 43 years and we moved to Sun City West last year. My wife was born in Hanford, California and grew up in Yuba City, California.

4. Family?

We have a daughter, Brianne, and my son-in-law, Mike, are proud parents of my two grandchildren, Micky (16 years old) and Lily (12 years old).

5. Work background or trade?

I worked for the State of California for 36 years. I retired in 2006 as a middle-level manager. My wife worked for various Hi-Tech Companies before she retired in 2010, as a Customer Relations/Liaison Specialist.

6. What makes your car special?

Over the course of time, I have learned that there were only 63 GTS cars, like mine, made for the 2015 model year with a manual transmission, Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV), X73 Sport Suspension. There were no luxury options ordered on this car. I guess someone ordered this car for track duty and backed out of purchasing it. I found this car in Dallas,Texas. Park Place Porsche (now it is called Porsche Dallas) delivered the car in November 2014.

| 12 |

7. Next upgrade?

I’ve been waiting quite awhile for a quality shock absorber company to make a shock absorber for the rear that will accommodate the factory springs with special valving for auto crossing that do not have remote reservoirs. I’ve been working with Motion Control Suspension (MCS) & JRi to build a shock for the rear of the Cayman GTS 981 chassis. It appears that MCS may have a shock designed and tested by the end of December 2020 or sometime in January 2021. I’m hoping to have my car setup for autocrossing by early 2021, so I can take my car to Parade and compete in the autocross segment.

8. Have you personalized your car?

Personalized license plate (“RFUNGTS”) and I had to add an after-market XM Radio System.

9. Favorite memory with a car?

Every drive we take. They’re all good memories. Unfortunately, I haven’t driven my car much since I spend most of my time auto crossing a non-Porsche car with SCCA, American Autocross Series, and recently with AZ Region Autocross events.

10. Why did you buy your Porsche?

To autocross. The Cayman is a mid-engine built car and I think it will handle very well, if I can get the right shocks for the car.

11. High school nickname?

I had various nicknames that my friends call me. Actually, my first name is Kenneth Allan (two first names and no middle name). My parents wanted to name me after two good friends of theirs’. Kenneth was the first name of the doctor that delivered me and Allan was the name of a Congressman or a State Assemblyman (I don’t remember which one now) for the Long Beach Congressional or State Assembly District. My nicknames were: Kenner, Kenny Allan, Kenny, and Mitch Jr., or KA.

12. Top 3 cars you would own?

Porsche and Corvettes, which I currently own. I would like to own a T-Bucket Roadster or a Deuce Coupe (3 or a 5 window, I’m not that picky) but, they really are not practical cars that would get driven much. I have that problem now with several of my cars. My wife likes the color-keyed cloth door handles on the GT4 so, maybe we will have a GT4 in the future. I wanted to get a GT3 RS when I bought my Cayman GTS but, since the GT3RS only came with an automatic transmission (PDK) and only two pedals so, it was a no brainer in getting the Cayman GTS with three pedals and a manual transmission.

REGION ANNOUNCEMENTS Scenic Drive to Fountain Hills Saturday, February 6, 2021

Join us as we go on a scenic drive to Fountain Hills. We will start by taking a meandering route through beautiful desert neighborhoods in North Scottsdale, heading east to Rio Verde, passing by McDowell Mountain Park and through Fountain Hills for a short stop. Continuing onto the Beeline Highway, our route goes through East Mesa to the scenic road which passes Usery Park then turns to follow the Salt River to Saguaro Lake. After a stop at the picturesque cliffs below the lake we will head on to Fountain Hills for lunch. Because of the current Covid situation, lunch will be on your own at the end of the tour. Bring your Porsche out for a fun February drive in the Valley of the Sun!

HPDE at Arizona Motorsports Park by Dan Bouet, Driver Education Chair photos by Kellie Bouet and Chadd Randall

ZPCA hosted another fun-filled HPDE track day on Saturday, January 16 at Arizona Motorsports Park. The weather was chilly in the morning, but gave way to a beautiful, mid 70’s sunny Arizona day- the best kind of day to spend out at the track!

There were several first-time track participants in attendance. We always love to see members take the plunge and try their hand at their first HPDE! Once again, drivers in the beginner/novice group were all paired up with their own personal driving instructors- a 1:1 ratio of student/ instructor. Communication was done via a Bluetooth radio headset so that the instructor and student could discuss anything necessary while navigating the track and exploring the limits of the driver and car. There were additionally three other groups out on track; Intermediate, Experienced, and Advanced groups. Those groups were very popular as well, keeping the action on the track entertaining for all to watch. Our next HPDE is scheduled on Saturday, February 13. It will be held again at Arizona Motorsport Park. We are looking for volunteers to assist with the event, so if you would like to get involved, please contact drivereducation@az.pca.org. We hope to see you out there!

Spotless...

by Jim Bultema, Director At Large Essential Equipment to Wash Your Car

photo by FM Detailing

n my first article I discussed how to thoroughly clean your wheels. With your Spotless wheels looking good it’s time to look at how to correctly wash your Porsche. Some of you may answer, “Why that’s simple, I just drive it to my local car wash and let them do all the work.” While many do just that, you might want to consider just what is being done to your pride and joy as it zips through all those whirling brushes. Although you may be saving money and time, your favorite car wash may be harming your car. You might consider that the establishment might be using dirty towels or using caustic soaps that remove dirt easily but potentially damage your car’s finish. Perhaps they don’t clean their brushes often or they are simply too harsh for your Porsche’s finish. So, you ask, I use a “Touchless” car wash, so I know that is safe, right? Again, you should consider that these types of washes use chemicals and powerful water spray to remove the dirt. It’s basically a chemical mixture that attempts to get all the dirt from your car and in many cases doesn’t accomplish what they advertise. With this in mind, I want to discuss the safest way to clean your Porsche—by hand. With your favorite music playing in the background, you get down to cleaning and perhaps rediscover just how relaxing it is, especially when you are finished, and you step back to marvel at your work. Sorry for some repeat stuff here from my first article, but it is worth mentioning again and in more detail. Car Wash Shampoo. With your car parked in the shade you get out your car wash shampoo which is to say not the dish soap under your sink which is designed to take away grease and food. Those same chemicals that work so well on your dishes will strip your car wax and dry out your plastic moldings and rubber seals. A top-rated car shampoo will clean your car’s surface enhance the gloss, maintain your wax, paint protector or paint sealant and leave them all on the car where they belong. Car Wash Mitts. To make your job much easier you need to have a high-quality car wash mitt. They come in many shapes and sizes, but you want one that has either long or short nap microfiber made from sheepskin that can be either synthetic or genuine. With microfiber fingers lathering your car over your delicate paint, the mitt and sudds gently remove road grime and dirt. Car Wash Buckets. Since water weighs 8.35 pounds per gallon, I suggest a 5-gallon bucket with dolly wheels which makes things much simpler to push around your car. To ensure a swirl-free finish, make sure you use a two-bucket system. One bucket to holds the soapy car wash solution while the second holds clean, clear, water so you can rinse your mitt after each pass over your Porsche. Inside your soapy bucket you need a plastic insert that is placed on the bottom of the bucket and is raised by four lateral fins keeping your mitt from picking up the junk that just came off your car.

| 20 |

Nozzles. First, get rid of the leaky nozzle that drips all over your feet when you are watering your flowers and for a few bucks pick up an industrial nozzle that won’t leak and offers a variety of spray patterns. Make sure it has an open flow which is important for rinsing your car. This option allows the water to sheet off instead of beading up which will cut down on drying time and the forming of water spots. Another nice aspect is when you throw the nozzle to the driveway, it’s designed so it doesn’t land on the trigger soaking you and your clean car. Drying your car. As mentioned in my first article, you have two choices for drying your ride. You can use an air blower or a gently designed microfiber towel. These microfiber waffle towels are indeed incredibly soft, safe, and effective at doing their job. The waffle fibers act like small pockets, absorb the water from your car, and are gentle on your Porsche’s finish. It is best to arm yourself with two towels. One picks up most of the water while your follow-up with the second to pickup any residual moisture insuring against water streaks. As for blowers, there are many to choose from that are lightweight, handheld, and powerful enough to blow water from your car also leaving it streak free. Putting it all together—Washing your car. Remember to park car in the shade. This will prevent your wash shampoo solution from drying on the car before it’s rinsed off. Next have your two buckets filled and mitt ready to go. Let’s do this. 1. Thoroughly rinse your Porsche’s surface to remove all loose dirt and grime before going after it with your mitt. 2. Most experts agree to start with the top of your car and work from top to bottom. Since most of the dirtiest parts of your vehicle are those areas nearest the ground: the wheels, rocker panels and bumpers. 3. Load up your wash mitt and wring it out over the wash surface. This is like a pre-soak and quickly loosens any surface dirt and the sudsy surface makes your mitt glide over your car’s surface cleaning as it goes. 4. Wash in a straight, overlapping lines understanding that the first pass will pick up most of the dirt and then loosens the dirt for the second pass. I would suggest keeping your wash areas small and rinse your mitt frequently in the second bucket. 5. Next, rinse your car using the open setting on your hose nozzle or if you don’t have one, take the nozzle off the hose and run the water over the car. 6. Next, when you dry your car remember to wring the microfiber towel out often. Be very gentle as you dry your car’s surface. There is no need to put much pressure on to the paint, let the towel do the work. And the last step if you are like me and you just can’t resist, grab your phone, step back and grab a shot of your beauty in the driveway—looking Spotless of course!

La Posada Hotel - Half The Fun Is Staying There by Richard Andrade photos by Richard Andrade

n most trips, you spend as little time as necessary at your hotel. The La Posada is different, it is a destination in its own right. I hope you find this visit summary interesting and have the opportunity to stay at the La Posada sometime in the future.

La Posada, A Restored Historic Hotel in Winslow, Arizona Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter (April 4, 1869 – January 8, 1958) was an American architect and designer. She was one of the very few female American architects in her day. Mary Colter herself declared the 1930 La Posada Hotel to be her masterpiece. The sprawling, hacienda-style Spanish Colonial Revival building in Winslow, Arizona, has been called “the last great railroad hotel built in America”. She was architect and designer for the entire resort, from the buildings to the acres of gardens, the furniture, china—even the maids’ uniforms. Closed in 1957, in a long decline it was first a drab 1960s office building for the Santa Fe, and then was empty when the National Trust for Historic Preservation placed the hotel on its annual “Most Endangered” list. When Allan Affeldt decided to buy the abandoned La Posada Hotel in Winslow, Ariz., no bank would offer him a loan. The deal sounded like a steal at face value in 1994: $158,000 for a 72,000-square-foot historic hotel set on 20 acres. But La Posada, which had hosted Clark Gable and Howard Hughes in its heyday, had been boarded up for years. Estimates put renovation costs at $12 million. And once it opened, who would stay there? Aside from stray tourists pulling off I-40 to see the corner the Eagles sang about in “Take It Easy,” Winslow was not on anyone’s bucket list of places to see before dying. But love is blind, some say. Affeldt traveled from Laguna Beach, Calif., to see La Posada after it appeared on the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s endangered list. He instantly fell in love with the building and a woman, Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter, who died in 1958. A visionary architect and interior designer, Colter had designed and furnished some of the Southwest’s most fascinating buildings, including La Posada and the Hopi House and Watchtower on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.

The Art Of The La Pasada Tina Mion is an American contemporary artist, working in oil paint and pastels. She lives in Winslow, Arizona, where she and her husband own La Posada, a local hotel in which much of her art is on display. She met her husband, Allan Affeldt, in 1988 on a peace walk organized by Affeldt from Odessa to Kiev in the Soviet Union. In the late 1990s, they moved from the University of California, Irvine, where her husband was a graduate student, to Winslow, Arizona, in part because Mion found the open spaces of Homolovi State Park to be an inspiration in her work. In 2005 Affeldt became the mayor of Winslow. Mion’s 1996 “Virtual Election” project consists of a set of 52 portraits, of 42 U.S. presidents and several other famous people, together with a web site allowing visitors to vote among them. The series has been shown at several presidential libraries, and she later added another series of portraits of presidential wives. A 1997 painting by Mion from the presidential wife series shows Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis holding a playing card (the king of hearts) cut into two by a bullet. It is now in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery, as is a 2007 pastel by Mion depicting astronaut Neil Armstrong. Several more of her works have been featured in temporary exhibits at the Smithsonian. Tia’s website home page rotates through much of her art, click here to see it: http://tinamion.com/

La Posada History La Posada opened May 15, 1930, just after the stock market crash of 1929, and remained open for just 27 years. In 1957, the hotel closed to the public. The museum-quality furnishings were auctioned off in 1959. In the early 1960s, much of the building was gutted and transformed into offices for the Santa Fe Railway. Several times over the ensuing 40 years, the building was nearly demolished, as recently as 1994 when the railway announced its plans to move out for good.

Article by Tom Beeler

First of a series on Porsche Indy car history

Tom Beeler is a long time CIR member and has been a motorsports journalist for over 30 years. His extensive car collection includes a couple of Porsche’s, several Indy 500 pace cars, an E-Type Jag, a McLaren (that’s for sale) and even an AMC Gremlin.

The Huffaker chassis was powered by two, 2.0L Porsche air cooled, engines.

ver the years, major foreign manufacturers had attempted several times to qualify for, and win, the venerable Indianapolis 500-Mile Race In the earliest days of the 500, Peugeot left an indelible mark, winning the 1913, 1916, and 1919 races. Three-time Indy winner Wilbur Shaw drove his Mike Boyle-owned Maserati 8CTF to Victory Lane in 1939 and 1940, and was leading in 1941, on his way to a third-straight victory, when one of his wire wheels collapsed three-quarters of the way through the race. After WWII, Alfa-Romeo, Mercedes-Benz, and Ferrari came to Indianapolis in privateer and factory efforts, but failed to achieve any real measure of success.

One engine powered the front wheels, the other powered the rear wheels.

By the 1960s, the heavy, front-engined Indy car design gave way to the lower profiles of rear-engine designs — Lotus Cars of England leading the way. An explosion of novel engineering creativity followed. The field of the 1965 Indianapolis 500 was composed of fifteen different chassis designs. Innovation had become the name of the game. And that spirit of innovation hit Southern California midget driver Albert Stein square on the head. Seeing the new boxer engines in the recently introduced Porsche 911, Stein had an epiphany. One 911 engine wouldn’t have enough power to keep up with the Indianapolis Meyer-Drake Offenhauser engines (400 hp) and Ford Indy DOHC four-cam engines (425 hp) currently running. But TWO might. | 26 |

Bill Cheesbourg rolls out on a practice run at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the Stein-Porsche.

Having secured a deal from a friend to buy new 2.0L Porsche 901 boxer engines from Europe, Stein had veteran Indy chassis builder Joe Huffaker build a low chassis to accommodate two Porsche engines — one driving the front wheels, one driving the rear wheels — thus taking advantage of the Indy-sanctioning United States Auto Club rules allowing for four-wheel drive. The arrangement also allowed the car to run four Indy car rear wheels all the way around the car, thus providing much better grip. The key, though, was that the Porsche flat-sixes, mounted low in the chassis, gave the car a spectacularly low center of gravity, and a great ability to manage the 9-degree Indianapolis Motor Speedway banking. The notion of a twin-engined Indy car was not new. Motorcoach builder William Fageol brought a twin

Offenhauser-engined car to the 500 in 1946, with veteran Paul Russo driving. The car handled incredibly-well, it was said — enough so that Russo qualified the car second, in the center of the front row. Unfortunately, the car’s day ended early, when it spun in another car’s oil and hit the wall. Stein hired six-time Indy veteran driver, Bill Cheesbourg — to drive the Stein-Porsche. Cheesbourg’s best start was ninth in 1961, and best finish was 10th in 1958. He was no stranger to the challenges of Indy, but hadn’t yet shown great success. It’s worth noting that Cheesbourg had spread himself a little thin that May. He was also attempting to work the bugs out of a turbine-powered Quin Epperly laydown roadster. As it ended up, neither car wound up having the “oomph” they needed to make the Big Show. Stein’s Huffaker-Porsche evidently had adequate power and stability in the corners, as one might expect, but simply couldn’t generate enough horsepower to compete with established power plants on Indy’s long front and back straights. At a best average of 149 mph, the Porsche was about ten miles per hour off the pace to make the field, and over 15 mph behind eventual polesitter Mario Andretti. The car was later dismantled, and its parts scattered to the winds. The body panels reportedly still live on in race shops around southern California. Porsche’s inaugural appearance at Indianapolis was disappointing, but not too surprising. With no factory support, and Stein’s failure to acquire the yet-to-be-released 911S camshafts, the Stein Huffaker-Porsche would eventually come to be remembered as one of the more unusually designed cars to enter the Greatest Spectacle in Racing. A little more than a decade later, Porsche would give Indy its complete focus.

Getting a Porsche Dirty by Rob Turner photos by Rob Turner

o doubt there are Porsche owners who will not drive their cars in anything approximating rain. Hell, even if the threat of rain is a week away, their pristine rides stay safely confined in their garages. And a spec of dust, heaven forbid! Hey, I get it, guilty as charged. My Racing Yellow Porsche Cayman 981 S a/k/a Lemonhead (or as my PCA plates say LMNHED) does not like rain. Or more accurately, LMNHED’s owner does not like rain and residue splashing LH. So what, you say, “take it to a carwash.” Surely you jest. Nobody but me washes LMNHED. I wash it regularly anyway. Dirt, no dirt, I love washing it. My neighbors must think I am crazy, obsessive or most likely both. But washing can also be helpful. Every wash, I clean the barrels of the wheels, and that allows me to carefully examine the tires and brakes. Recently I noticed a sharp screw embedded in the rear tire. I carefully put the car up on jack stands and removed the offending tire. No offence but I do not like to take the car to Discount Tire, I worry they will break something, but I did take the tire there. (Note: I am a 30-year loyal customer!) Of course, they immediately took care of the screw. Crisis averted. Point is, washing the car frequently has its advantages.

before Marble Falls and took FM 1174 to Bertram and that is where my luck ran out. It rained hard, but it fell the hardest as I was driving through a road-work zone. Oh yes, there was mud covering the road where they were working on wash outs and low road crossings. I could just hear the slop of mud as it flung its sticky ooze all over the underside of LH. Oh yeah, the Cayman LMNHED was now getting good and dirty.

Okay, we have set the scene so to speak. I do not like to get LH dirty. But I also need to get out of the house during COVID. Some weeks, I will take a long drive up to the Red River which marks the border between Texas and Oklahoma. I have a route that is a blast, culminating in a long, lonely bridge that crosses over into OK. This bridge has sight lines for over two miles and most of the time, there is zero traffic – just saying. Over the recent holiday break, I had the chance to take my older son from N. Texas (where we live) back to the Austin area (where he lives). He stuffed all 6’8” of his tall frame into LH and we trekked South. Weather forecast said a slight chance of rain – 20%. Of course, we hit the 20%. With all the road spray and grime on IH-35, LH was pretty dirty by the time we got to Austin. I spent the night and had dinner with an old friend, so I was up and ready to go the next AM. My plan was to take back roads home. Forecast called for a very slight chance of rain, what could go wrong? I took FM 1431 from Cedar Park to Marble Falls. It is a great twisty-turny road, but you do have to anticipate traffic since it is the most direct route between the two towns. And in that one perfect moment when you have a clear road and yellow signs that say: “Turns next 2 miles”, you hit it. Hard. I turned off

| 28 |

US Highway 281 is a great Porsche cruising road. I have written about it in the past, great sight lines and plenty of passing zones, plus it is a drop-dead gorgeous part of Texas. Picking it up in Burnet I took it until FM 1189 up to Lipan. Finally, I reached the reason for all these backroads - FM 4. A narrow ribbon of tarmac that reveals its greatness slowly. Long straight stretches then tight 90° bends followed by looooonnnng constant radius turns, but it all leads you to about five glorious miles from just north of Santo to just south to Palo Pinto that is the best stretch of bendy road in N. Texas. The road dips and turns back on itself descending into an ancient riverbed then climbs back out. It is usually my luck that I get either the run down or up unimpeded, this time I got lucky – zero traffic. But as luck would have, there had been a recent shower, so the road was slick. I gauged the traction limits and dialed the Cayman in just below.

Sport Plus mode? Check. Sport Exhaust mode? Check. Manual PDK shifting? Check, check and check. Then I hit it. The 3.4 Lt flat six singing as I snapped down a gear to take a tight corner, the sound of the exhaust back pressure crackling again and again as I down shifted from fifth to second to take one tight corner. Then the roar of acceleration as the rear tires bit into the pavement, FM 4â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s abrasive chipseal provided plenty of grip off center. But just as fast as this glorious stretch started, it was over. The afternoon was stretching towards evening and I still had more than 100 miles to run before home. Back in my own garage, twisting the key, I stopped the great heart of the motor. It was silent, I mean so quiet, as I sat there absorbing the greatness of the Cayman. Then I got out and took a look at LH and I just had to laugh, it was dirty. No, not just dirty, filthy. I have owned a lot of Porsches and I have never gotten one this dirty. But I also smiled to myself as it meant that I would get to wash and detail it. A beautiful weekend forecast called for hose, wash bucket, special paint shampoo, soft plush purple wash towels, orbital polisher and high end carnauba wax. Perfect. LMHHED was glad to be home and I think it wore the badge of dirt proudly for a few days. It meant it had been driven and enjoyed, it had played in the rain and had a good time. But on Saturday, I think it was ready to get clean again. Sometimes it is OK to get your Porsche dirty. It means you get to wash it and make it perfect. And on that exhaust note, see you all next time.

BOOK REVIEWS FOR PORSCHEPHILES by Bruce Herrington, Orange Coast Region

Volkswagen BEETLES AND BUSES Smaller and Smarter Volkswagen BEETLES AND BUSES Smaller and Smarter by Russell Hayes, published 2020 by Motorbooks, Beverly, MA

rinted in ‘European Style’ with lots of white space on the pages, the beautiful pages are achieved in part by using a small font. You won’t necessarily need a magnifying glass, but make sure your ‘readers’ are handy. Another annoyance is that there is no caption for the interesting inside and outside cover pictures, and the Image Credits are given in alphabetical order by vendor, not by page. The story begins with the ‘People’s Car’ as virtually a marketing tool for Hitler’s Democrat Socialist Party, and how after the war no existing European or American car company was willing to get involved in running Volkswagen. But the British government desperately needed vehicles to enable its personnel to get around the British Zone. After examining an early Beetle, officials ordered a batch of 20,000 cars from the factory in August 1945, and they doubled that number several weeks later. By the time those orders were filled, Volkswagen, virtually an employee owned company, was a viable business. Incidentally, this past December 27 th was the 75th anniversary of one of the most important dates in VW history - series production of the Type 1 (which we know as The Beetle), was launched on December 27, 1945. Roughly one year after Beetle production became significant, the ‘cargo vehicles’ Transporter, Kombi and Microbus, joined by the Samba in ‘51 (who remembers what the differences are ?) entered production, Today the production figures from the ancient early ‘50s seem huge – 62,500 ‘vans’ in 1956 alone, with a comparable number of Beetles – figures that would skyrocket by the ‘70s. The eight chapters including Not Like the Other Ones, Early Beetle Folks and Screen and Gallery, tend to be topic focused rather than strictly chronological, and also tend to skip around from Beetle to Bus and back again. A great deal of historical data on design, production quantities and prices are included. Despite these details, this book is more a collection of anecdotes about Beetles and Buses than an encyclopedic history. | 34 |

BEETLES AND BUSES details the various specialized commercial versions of the ‘van & pickup’ models, and the camper versions - first as kits then as completed vehicles. There is a discussion of all electric and hybrid vans and pickups produced in small developmental quantities in the early ‘70s, but dropped after the fuel crisis ended. Interestingly, mention of the last German beetle ~16,255,500 built on January 19, 1978, and the last beetle convertible 330,281 on January 10, 1979 occur on page 108 of this 176 page book. The VW story is bigger than most Americans realize. Even the almost extinct air-cooled van sold 4.800,000 units between 1967 and 1979. One entire chapter is devoted to VWs in movies; bit parts exclusively until the Love Bug series made the car the star. The origin of the name Herbie turns out to be very mundane, but it took eleven different vehicles to perform Herbie’s various tricks in the first film. There is also a chapter on iconic pictures and album covers that, intentionally or unintentionally, show VWs in the background. Extensive discussion of the Beach Buggy and Baja Bug phenomena explains how VoA first tried to distance itself from these heretics then came to embrace at least the Baja versions. The Cal Look and the Hippie Buses are also discussed, but from a somewhat British viewpoint. There is considerable discussion of the eco-politics of Beetle production in Brazil and Mexico. The New Beetle is included, described as designed in Simi Valley, CA, and first produced in Mexico. Detailed stories of a few owner experiences are included to illustrate or explain the VW lifestyle. One story makes reference to a VW German auto garage in Laguna Canyon. BEETLES AND BUSES has 176, 8.5x10 inch heavyweight gloss pages with 200 color pictures and a very extensive three page Index. It is very well illustrated with mostly European pictures. It should be available for $40.00 from your favorite book seller (ask for it), or from Amazon.com.
