Off road Beetle

Good night!

The VW Beetle was designed to be an urban car with capacity to deal with the mud and other offroad obstacles (just like the modern SUV) as we can see in this TV commercial from 1965.

And here we have some real-life examples of how the beetle can be used under extreme conditions.

Fusca Bala!

Fusca Bala in a free translation means Bullet Beetle. Probably the most famous modfied/custom Brazilian car, it's nothing more than the good old VW Beetle with cool wheels or tunned motor. It was very popular during the 70's and early 80's and still in action in drag competition arround Brazil...

One year since the last post

One year has passed since the last time I posted in the blog...

... use a moble phone to post is no a good idea!

Now we're living and working in the South of Brazil and my wife says the the "Dog Days are Over". In fact is: life is bether now! Less work, less trafic, more spare time and more extra spare time! So, I wil have lots of time to post. My plan is: post more often... more often than once a week. If I don't post with the periodicity I'm planning the most probable reason is: my wife is playing too much bubble shooter!

Good evening, dear readers!

I'm back!


PS: Don't forget to switch to 240p to turn on the audio of "Dog Days are Over" video.

Dodge 1800

Returning from the countryside... what a view!

A shining 1977 Dodge 1800, the Brazilian version of the Dodge Avenger produced between 1973 and 1981. My father had one when he was single!

Have a nice weekend!

Last Weekend

Greetings, dear readers!

Last weekend my wife and I went to the town where my grandparents used to live in the countryside of São Paulo State. My grandfather (father of my mother) has died 3 months ago and now my grandmother is living with my parents in Curitiba, Paraná State. They went there to prepare the house to be sold, you know, to pack my grandparents' stuff and make a garage sale. And I got the tool's box and the father of my father's shotgun (my grandfather was keeping it for my father). A strange situation for me because I knew that I won't back to that house and it is going to be difficult to visit that town again. So, we visited some relatives and old friends.

Saudade!

Have a nice week!

Closing...
