Well, since I can set my mind at ease (thanks everyone for the advice on the seats!)

here are some pics from the carshow. More as I get them, I wasn't the one with the camera except at the vanagon stuffer.

So here's one of the events.. the "Vanagon stuff" - basically, there was a bet that the new vanagon could fit more people than the old vw bus. The bet was on, winner got an award.





Newer one got 31 in it total.

But the old one?

People contemplating on if they wanna fill up a van with stinky people.


COME ON PEOPLE, YOU CAN DO IT!








31! The same!




Me with the 911 and the 914.




Low car limbo! Winner gets a giant apple pie. I won! Here's an MG.


A 240 that almost beat me.


Note the full tire pressure.


Stakes are getting high.


It's on!


Desperate times call for desperate measures, note tire pressure. Last run (after this) ended up with people on the car (carefully of course) and we ended up beating a car on air suspension. STOCK 914 FOR THE WIN!

Looks like it was a blast!

Yup, looks like you guys were having fun. So how many did you squeeze in the van.

31

....Dig the magic bus & P-cars

Well then, they just weren't trying hard enough!
... I'd have thought 40+ in a Bus or Vanagon!

Cuz back in the day we stuffed 16 into my buddy's 65 Bug & drove down to Shakey's Pizza in Santee CA.

But the real trick was getting all 16 back in stuffed with pizza & driving the 45 hp Bug back up the hill to his house!
