rmvw guy Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Nice looking Blue Bug. People my age use to see these everywhere. I've owned six Beetles, currently have a '70 Bug. Every time I see a model like your's I want to build another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Myers Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 All that talkin' an' lookin' I didn't realize that was yours Johnathan. Great build, clean. Nice to see it isn't accessory laden like so many. Six years growing up in Europe, I don't recall ever seeing VW's with a car top carrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signguy2108 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Cool little bug.Great job. I had a '53 in high school, had the funny turn signals that popped out of the door post, 36 hp (my riding lawn mower has almost as much now). I could put $2 worth of gas in it and drive for a month!

smellyfatdude Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Thank you for posting this! The site of your Beetle gave me a serious flashback, and I felt like a kid again, remembering for a moment the days when you took the sight of these cars on the road for granted. I'm just going to have to get me one of these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
