At the planning meeting tonight, we discussed the possibility of creating/building a "custom" barbecue that could be brought to all of the club events. Something on a trailer, chop up an unsalvageable bug and turn it into a grill, ???

Anyone have any ideas......Sound like a VW Tech weekend project?
Post any ideas you have regarding the ATHENS VW CLUB travelling "Barb-e-cue".

How about a big fire pit like this one from Circle Yer Wagens 18 in 2003

Very Happy

I think the back of a ghia would be a sweet grill. If you cut it off in front of rear wheels and put a hitch on it.

I called Joey to see if he had a ghia we could use. He got mad that we would even consider turning a ghia into a grill. Rolling Eyes

That looks cool! I think there using the engine compartment for storage. I think the engine compartment should be the grill, right?
