59 VW Beetle

[berryw]

I liked the buggy so much I had to get something with a roof for the rain and snow.

1500 single port (for now)
Rear end from a transporter (with gear reducers)
body lift, dual rear shocks
reinforced frame (mostley with gussets all over)

I would never drive a purple car.. so I tell everyone it is my daughter's (she's almost 6 months old, gotta be prepared!).

Nice, my heart is still air-cooled. At least when it's above 40degs outside :D

What's so wrong with purple?

Nice car! It really looks clean, and well put together.

I owned a '70 Baja when I turned 16. We used to jump it, climb with it, find large fields of snow and bomb through, until I took on a bunch of water..

At school, at least once a week I'd go outside, start the car up and someone had switched my plug wires. Pop! Pop! Another time one of my friends stole my distributor rotor.

Replace any throttle cables yet? I kept one in the glovebox...
