How DId I Get Here?

Volkswagen Beetle, Multi-colour

Reminds me of...
"Once In A Lifetime" by Talking Heads
And you may find yourself
Living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself
In another part of the world
And you may find yourself
Behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house
With a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself, well
How did I get here?

Well, how did I get to this multi-coloured Volkswagen Beetle?  
The short answer is "time". Go home and stay home.
... This all started with a search for a specific golf hole photograph to use as reference for a hole-in-one for a friend. In my search, I found a CD of photos that I took at a classic car, truck and tractor show in Bracebridge in 2012.

1. First, I see old tractors, I want to draw one of those... having been raised on a farm.
2. Then, came a red truck... red is the only colour of vehicle I have ever owned.
3. Then, a turquoise car,... just because it is a great colour for a classic car.
4. Then, came the Volkswagen Beetle, they came in such great colours!! So, I did a red one and a turquoise one.

​Then, I read about how "most VW parts are interchangeable from one year to the next" so you could have a care that looked like this!  See all six illustrations here.
