For two days I have been keeping my eyes peeled for a classic Beetle. While out and about, I have seen six old VW vans and a couple of Karman Ghias. Also, there is a field that I drove by twice that has dozens of old Beetles, Karmans, VW station wagons and some vans. But I cannot find a way to park close enough without fear of being shot at. The best I could do would be a drive-by shot.

Those bugs are getting more rare, hard to sneak up and get close to them. Good job!
Time to serve up the next challenge.

Very well, next challenge, not particularly hard but just to stretch your legs... Your vehicle on a bridge but the pic taken from either a higher elevation or lower (i.e. if over a river possibly from the river bank) .. Drones would be cheating in my opinion but that's me.

Not a very spectacular shot, but I didn't have to leave the neighborhood to get it.
I'm not sure if a big culvert really qualifies as a bridge, and since I don't want to ruin it for someone who may be putting in an effort to get a nice bridge shot, I'll leave the challenge the same.

Hey, is that one of those reworked culverts that make it more friendly for fish to move through? It looks like a nice stream running through it and I know where there are fish like trout and such, they are trying to move away from the round culverts.

Since
@ PaulsTrail
left this challenge in place, I will post my FauxRunner bridge shot. I also didn't have to leave the neighborhood to get it. My son shot the pic from our balcony as I drove across... it was a highly coordinated effort.
Next challenge: Your ride next to THE vehicle you wish you had instead of the one you currently have. I put this out there because I am still struggling with the 4R I have on order or a Land Cruiser.

Cool shot. That’s a nice view from your balcony.

This culvert goes over a creek running through the neighborhood. It was reworked several years ago.
