Karmann Konnection Annual Swap Meet

It was a surprisingly sunny sunday morning & I got the train down to the Karmann Konnection shop which is hidden in the depths of southend just behind Southend Victoria railway station & the massive Royal Mail building. The Karmann Konnection shop has a fine selection on sparklingly new & rather spiffing vintage parts for your volkswagen or Porsche. This is an annual event fully sponsored by the KK team for customers. There was a nice (& free) BBQ where I got a can of pop & a meaty burger so I could spill tommy K down my t-shirt whilst looking at some top bugs & buses. I was probably there a few hours, whilst it not being a big do, the set up was casual with people coming & going all day with their own vehicles, so the longer you spent there the more you'd see & there are some bloody good daily drives out there!

Ratty with some rather nice finishing touches

Does what it says on the tin!
