THE "VW GASSERS" Movie WORLD PREMIERE at Flagey in Brussels, Belgium.

DSC06905.JPG

 

The world premiere of Mike Walravens' movie was a great success to say the least!

With people from Scotland, UK, Germany, Holland, France and us the Belgians it was a very international gathering.

DSC06838.JPG

Seeing this on the big screen was a unique experience, all those gassers and the people who built them telling their stories, their lives, it's all about the passion and what drove them to going faster and faster in these small VW's in a world filled with fast US made musclecars!

DSC06866.JPG

You could hear a pin drop during the whole projection, the eyes fixated to the big screen, the only thing missing was the smell of burning hot rubber and race fuel! :-)

The venue was perfect, a 1930's building with some cal lookers in front and a theatre that was just the right size for this screening.

Congrats to You Mr.Mike you did a great Job!

EUROPEAN BUG IN Presents: VW GASSERS - THE MOVIE!!!

GasserMovie-CoverDef-SmallOK.jpg

 

This major project, which kept running through my head the past two years has finally come out into the open. A sabbatical year in terms of organizing the European Bug-In has identified some time for its realization.

DVD - VW Gasser "the Muscle Beetle Story" - gathered interviews Californians pioneer Drag Racing Volkswagen and old Super8 films forgotten in the attic for nearly 40 years. You used to see them in photo show-and-white ... here they are in color and they move! Inchpincher, Inchpincher Too, TarBabe, Anderson Bros., Lightning Bug, Underdog, Autohaus, StuttBee Ned Bug, Lil Giant Killer, RaceShopFiat ... gassers, these legends will be visible for the first time on screen. This one-hour documentary film is a tribute to the enthusiastic, keen competition, which have revolutionized the way we see the harmless little Volkswagen family. They also develop an industry still flourishes today. This DVD gives you to see the history of some of these pioneers.

If you want to know the genesis of your passion ... is the must have movie in your DVD library.

Enjoy my Movie :)

Mike Walravens
