If only VWOA would give the same support to their "Old Iron" that other marks do. You see Ford, GM, and Mopar doing what they can(or not doing what hurts) to keep the old Iron going. Their logo's and images are see all over clubs, restoration parts suppliers, shows and swap meets. They take a different approach to it. To them the "Old Iron" is a rolling testiment to the brand itself, and it is. Gatherings draw attention to the brands.
All this seemed to start with the change in CEO's a few years back. It's VWOA not VW the mother company. This is not the only problem VWOA has now, I hear storries of poor service and support from new VW owners all the time.
I don't see the same treatment happening to Porsche clubs and the like. Same mother company. I say VW should cast the demon(CEO) out.
