HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 🙂

I am back. My first car was a bug but I had to sell that 3 and a half years ago. But because I love them so much I want another one. In the next week or two I am on the lookout for a good solid bug 1969 upwards to restore! My boyfriend and I are going to spend a good few months doing it up and I can't wait!

I am looking for one that has a straight body, mechanically (engine and gearbox) very good, very little rust and preferably one that is still on the road. If anyone knows of any bugs for sale please U2U me!!

pod i`ve got to finish this thing one day
