November 09, 2008 - Lowlifevw Benefit Show
Tempe, Arizona

This year, we are having benefit show to help one of our fellow Volkswagen friends, Andy Ham. Andy has been into Volkswagens for quite sometime and has built some sensational vehicles including my favorite "The Bitch". Since I've known Andy, he has been struggling with a medical condition that keeps him in agonizing pain and a frequent visitor to hospitals in both the UK and here in the states. Andy spends a few weeks each month living in Chicago where he receives treatment that is not offered in his home country. To make treatment possible, Any has liquidated his rarest parts, sold his cars and mortgaged his home, all in an effort to get well. I'm sure you can imagine that this has depleted his finances greatly. That's where we step in and try and help out.

The show is taking place on November the 9th in Tempe Arizona. The Yucca Tap Room has been kind enough to allow us to hold our show in their parking lot. At the show we'll have trophys, raffles, auctions, music, food and an all around good time for all. Every penny made at the event will go to Andy. If you'd like to make a paypal donation, please use the following address: lowlifevwbenefitshow@gmail.com. Some prizes to look forward to are as follows:


New set of IDA 51's from Chirco (Chirco.com)
Rebuilt 1600 engine from Dougs Bugs and Bunnies
New Westy Rack from Vintage Warehouse
Drop Spindles from Pete @ Airkewld
Balljoint Narrowed Beam from AZBaja.com
Linkpin Narrowed Beam from AZBaja.com
Running Boards from Wedge VW

This is just a taste of things to come.
