German Folks x Kings Boardshop :: Volkswagen Open House

German Folks x Kings Boardshop :: Volkswagen Open House

Does it seem like everywhere you go you notice a Volkswagen Beetle ? From playing slug-bug as a kid to watching Herbie films, this iconic car played a major role in countless generations. It might be because this legendary Beetle was manufactured for 65 years consistently. A total of 21,529,464 vehicles was created during that time, making it the longest-produced vehicle ever in the history of car manufacturing. “Volkswagen” the German term for “The People’s Car” was created by Adolf Hitler and engineered by Ferdinand Porsche. The idea behind the company was to construct an affordable vehicle that could carry 2 adults and 3 children while being able to reach speeds of 100km/hr – 62mph. Over the years, Volkswagen made many small changes to the Beetle but it remained essentially the same – establishing this model as an instant classic.

Last Sunday, I spent my afternoon basking in great weather, indulging better tacos, and relishing in some of the best custom Volkswagens Southern California has to offer. I took a trip down to Montclair’s Kings Boardshop for their Volkswagen open house in collaborations with the infamous German Folks car club. In the midst of 40oz ring tossing, great music, and stuffing my face full of carne asada, I was able to capture shots of the vibe and custom VWs that rolled through.

This 1966 German Police Beetle grabbed a lot of attention.
