Airheads 247 Podcast: Duane Ausherman (part 2)

Is there a more famous photo of a /2 VW conversion than the one with a bearded, leather clad Duane Ausherman from the late 1960โ€™s? With that, we are thrilled to have Duane with us this week. Of course, weโ€™ll talk about the /2 VW conversion but thereโ€™s so much more. Duane was in on the vanguard of BMW dealers in the early 70โ€™s when company started expanding and building markets in the west coast. Duane later worked with the venerable Crag Vetter and nearly all of us have referenced his website https://w6rec.com/ as a trusted source for airhead maintenance and service information. Plenty of BMW history and airhead talk this week with Duane Ausherman on the Airhead 247 Podcast.
