DIANE AND TED – 1971 BUG
BACK IN 1971 DIANE AND TED NEEDED AN ECONOMICAL VEHICLE TO COMMUTE TO COLLEGE IN HAYWARD. FIRST STOP, THE LOCAL VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP WHERE DIANE HOPED TO FIND THE YELLOW BUG SHE HAD DREAMED OF OWNING. NEXT STOP, A PREVIEW OF A CHEVY VEGA AND FINALLY A TEST DRIVE OF A FORD PINTO. AS YOU MIGHT HAVE GUESSED, DIANE AND TED BECAME THE PROUD OWNERS ON ONE 1971 YELLOW VW BUG.
THE LITTLE YELLOW VW BUG SERVED THE FAMILY WELL. IN FACT, ALL THE KIDS LEARNED HOW TO DRIVE IN THE DEPENDABLE YELLOW BUG. NOW 40+ YEARS LATER DIANE AND TED DECIDED TO RESTORE THE BUG TO ITS ORIGINAL BEAUTY SO THEY TURNED THE PROJECT OVER TO PENINSULA AUTOMOTIVE. APPROXIMATELY EIGHT WEEKS LATER, PROUDLY THE 1971 LIKE-NEW YELLOW VW BUG RETURNED HOME FOR MANY MORE YEARS OF DRIVING FUN AND ENJOYMENT.
