  • Bug Owners Swarm Volkswagen Exhibit Car Club Members Give Mixed Reviews to the New Beetle
    Bug owners swarm Volkswagen exhibit Car club members give mixed reviews to the new Beetle WILLIAM J. DONOVAN Journal-Bulletin Staff Writer Alyce Jacquet owns a 1960 Volkswagen Beetle. Its name is Astrid. Alyce named her car after the girlfriend of Stu Sutcliff, the fifth member of the singing Beatles, who left the band. It was the only thing to do. Astrid is Alyce's fifth Beetle. Yesterday was "Bugs on Broadway" day. To coincide with the introduction of the new Volkswagen Beetle at the Northeast International Auto Show, the Rhode Island Air- Cooled Volkswagen Association lined their rebuilt and not-so-rebuilt Beetles and VW buses from the 1950s, '60s and '70s along Broadway. There, anyone who cared to wander up from the nearby Rhode Island Convention Center, where the auto show is being held, could see a 1971 Super Beetle restored by Tim Boyle of Cumberland. They'd find Gracie Anne, the 1969 Beetle owned by Adam Waring of East Providence. Or they could gaze upon Astrid herself, as always, parked pointing down the hill so Alyce will be able to start her. ("I knew how to roll-start before I learned to parallel park," says Jacquet.) Maybe it was the shape, maybe it was the affordability. Whatever, the object of their affection is the number-one selling automobile of all time and making a bit of a comeback. After a 20-year hiatus, Volkswagen of America will soon be selling new Beetles in the United States. Whether it satisfies the many owners of classic Beetles remains to be seen.

  • Vocho the Love Bug
    Classic Cars VOCHO THE LOVE BUG By Kenneth E. Seaton UNCH BUGGY RED [OR BLUE, GREEN OR WHATEVER YOUR FAVORITE COLOUR WAS] “PNO PUNCH BACK” THOSE WORDS SHOULD EVOKE FOND MEMORIES OF ANOTHER ERA. A TIME OF LONG DRIVES IN THE FAMILY CAR WITH KIDS EAGERLY PEERING OUT THE WINDOWS SEARCHING AND HOPING TO BE THE FIRST ONE TO SPOT THE UNIQUE LOOKING VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE. This was the one time that you could gleefully pound on your siblings and get away with it. Who doesn’t affectionately remem- ber the punch buggy, beetle, bug or Vocho! Vocho? Yes Vocho (or Vochito for the kiddies) for that’s what it’s called in Mexico – the true home of the German Volkswagen Beetle. It is purported that back in 1933 Adolf Hitler talked of de- veloping a “Volks-Wagen” or (“People Car”). His dream was to produce a cheap, basic automobile that could transport two adults and three children at speeds of up to 100 km/h. Hitler is even credited with the vehicles iconic style as he is alleged to have said that “It should look like a Beetle, you have to look to nature to find out what streamlining is.” In 1954 Volkswagen de Mexico (VWM) began its foray into Mexico by importing completely assembled vehicles. Included in its first shipment from Germany were 250 Beetles. Studebaker- Packard in 1955 entered into a joint venture arrangement with Volkswagen to assemble Beetles in Mexico from fully disassem- bled kits. To solidify their future with Volkswagen in 1962 the Mexican Government donated land in a town called Puebla and began construction of a new assembly plant.
