Kinda looks like a bug. Maybe you can talk them out of the engine. That thang rips. Sure does look like fun.That would be fun. You think an even trade for my rusty Bug would be fair? lol

Nope straight in the left arm. Both are becoming pin cushions lately and I go for another blood test first of the week.Is that a bend over kinda flu shot?
I win 5 bucks every week guaranteed because I don't buy them. 5 bucks a week times 52 is 260 bucks a year. Compare that to how much you win a year. Mind you some people have more luck that others. If it wasn't for bad luck I'd have no luck at allSame here maybe 2 tickets a month is all but always fingers crossed.
Good plan. No phones, just peace and quiet. Everyone should do that.No, I am not a hunter, just planning to disconnect from the world for a few days and recharge my batteries.
I'd hold out for some cash.That would be fun. You think an even trade for my rusty Bug would be fair? lol
Awsome!
Maybe you can make one of those Porsche kit cars out of it.View attachment 1715812823My rusty bucket is just about torn down to the point of " I might be able to put it back together if I don't get to senile first". LOL
Looks just like I remember it. Bolt a seat in brace steering shaft go for a rip. LOL great fun. Then cut the back seat out weld back together build roll cage add 5 point harness go nuts. The wife and I put many miles on in the buggy. One time we were toodeling down the rail ditch and with the tee pee open header we didn’t hear the train. When he got right behind us he let the air horn go scared the crap out of us. I looked up at the engineer he was just roaring. I stopped the wife and I never laughed that hardView attachment 1715812823My rusty bucket is just about torn down to the point of " I might be able to put it back together if I don't get to senile first".

Have fun Mark and don't get in to much trouble. lolBOOOO!!! Morning guys and Happy Halloween.
Got the carshow/Food drive this morning at 11.
May be taking the 300 as the weather doesn't look good so far, we'll see.
Looking at putting the toy away next weekend, again we'll see what the weather brings. Sad time of year. As one guy I used to work with said when putting his sailboat away. It's like losing an old friend.
Have a great time tonight with the kids tonight.
Good morning, what are they worth restored ? Don’t forget to factor in your time now your at way more . I do realize it’s a hobby thing ?OK guys did a cost analysis on the bug with everything or most everything I could think it needs including new interior, rebuilt suspension , engine, body parts, exterior trim and lights, paint and wheels and tires. ads up to around the $12,000 mark.
That's putting it back to stock condition, so now will do a cost analysis on turning it into a Baja or custom kinda bug.
Hobby for sure gives me something to do.Good morning, what are they worth restored ? Don’t forget to factor in your time now your at way more . I do realize it’s a hobby thing ?
Vw people are weird in a good way but weird just the sameHobby for sure gives me something to do.
I think it would be worth somewhere in $20,000 but depends on like every old car how much someone wants it.

Sure do enjoy them but been over 45 year ago. Still struggling on what to do with mine I'm having a hard time deciding on how much work I want to put into it.My Class 11 Baja Bug racer got me and my co-driver in Dune Buggies and Hot VWs many moons ago![]()

I could chop the top but the hard part for me is finding windows to fit.I always wanted a chopped top street bug. Got to see my body shop buddies do one years ago and they made it look so easy. A local business here had a chopped body shell in their front yard as a decoration. It was on a high traffic street so just getting 4 friends and a trailer to put it on was not an option in the middle of the night
. The PD headquarters being right around the corner from it was a bit of a deterrent also
