A few from a series of a recently completed Volkswagen Beetle. It may be of a '61 vintage but it's bang up to date. (Airbag suspension explains the ridiculous ride height...love it)

Cooden Beach, Bexhill.

Canon EOS 350D. Sigma 17-70mm macro lens. Canon 430EX flash.

Great shots - cool car. Brings back memories - Many moons ago I had a 69' bug that I fixed up.

Nice shots! The 2nd one says "VW Outhouse" to me. You might want to rethink that? :D

Looks like it's hiding.. Looks like just another outhouse? You do know what they are/were, right?

Sure, they're beach huts - used to be very popular here in the UK and there are still many places where they can be found.

Great shots :D

I do like the second shot - make me think of the Vauxhall Corsa TV ad we have over here at the moment, with the cars playing hide and seek ;) :D
