Two new T34 friends from Switzerland came by during their vacation in Southern California and we took the 1962 out for a drive. Philip Egger (1969 M343) & Roland Gentner (1964 M343) brought their families to California and stopped by for the full-dose of T34 immersion: cars, parts, toys, literature, & photos from Karmann's archives. It was really nice to take the T34 for a spin after 4 years of inactivity. Special thanks to
Jason Weigel for sharing his spare early manifold, as mine was rusted-through & disintegrating.
My thoughtful new Swiss friends brought a unique license plate & vintage metal badge for the T34. The plate is from their local county in Thurgau (TG) and has a one-year registration tag (autographed by the 10 family members) and the vintage TCS (Touring Club Schweiz) badge is their equivalent of the AAA (mounted onto a bracket secured to the bumper bolt behind the guard).

Hey, what a cool picture. Those swiss accessories are pretty unique and look great on your T34 Lee.
Thanks again for helping us and your hospitality - I never will forget that BBQ and playing ping-pong against you in your garden. Not even the guys at "in n out" meet your burgers!!!
Tschüss, Adieu und Aufwiedersehen!
