Introduce yourself and what do you do at Just Kampers?
Hi I’m Weener and I'm part of our warehouse team at Just Kampers. This is my '1954 VW Oval Beetle.
Long time JK staff member Weener has just become the custodian of this cool ’54 Oval. It was originally built by the Newquay Dub Club for one of its members Matt Fallace. Sadly Matt passed away a few years ago. To honour Matt, Weener intends to get the Oval back on the road and back to VW shows, it’s what Matt would have wanted. Plans include fitting a 2007cc engine and a new gearbox, along with some cosmetic upgrades. Watch out for it at shows across UK and Europe this summer.
