Choose a category and then send a post saying exactly which model e.g.

Split Bus :1963 23 Window Samba

You could go on to say why!

Should be interesting to see how this turns out. Its a shame that I carn't put more than ten answers down as my list would be nearer twenty odd

L bugs!!
I like their look even if most dont, irs, handles so great - too bad about the extra weight!

My 73L Convertable was my fav and always will be.
Wish to god i had of kept it and fixed it after it was written off!

I suppose I must make mine a Full cal look 57 rag top bug with a stomping motor (2ltr+), on brms, in grey. Hopfully mine might turn out into this car as soon as I get my garage even if its a ratlooker to start with.:o

Have to be a 54 Rag Top for me. Would have to be full of old speed gear on the 36hp motor. Wide 5 356 chromies with decent radials. Maico disc brakes, MotoMeter guages, Speedwell Wheel.
All chrome intact, in Grey or Black with flames.
Thats all.
Had a few Ovals over the years but never a real rag top.

My 65 Beetle that I foolishly sold, we all make at least one big boo boo, but I love my 77 Kombi I have now, at least that soothe's the pain!

obviously i voted my split bus...

but i appreciate all air-cooled vw's but have a special spot for the 6v's. the earlier models seem more rounded, minimal and smart.

its only when u don't run bumpers, the way the L bug tucks under just isn't rite naked, needs a top on to help give the curves a better shape.😀

Any Type: of air-cooled 🙂

I'm just fickled or plain easy

But the older ones definitely. Splitties, dual cabs or single, beetles, kombis, fastbacks, notches sqbacks

Dr L is not a sort after type 3 or year but I think he's cool for a '70 Type 3 sqback, and Bel the '58 isn't an oval but she's so sweet to me

There has to be something about a particular VW that makes me flip over it, it's the cars personality, it's style/character but not necessarily intended by the owner

Hmm, hope I didn't loose every one :sandrine

mine would go like this : 57 rag cal looker, 63 23 window, 50s cab beetle, bay window bus camper.

Sorry that I didn't sqeeze in Kubels or swimmers into the poll anyway you carn't really see many of them around.

I am with Tazz on this one but i would sell it all for a sweet Fridolin or a split beetle and a 3 fold ragtop is a clsoe second with a samba coming in close behind.
All slammed and done justice !:bounce

I am with Tazz and Skewy on this one. Mine has to be a type 3. But im sorta picky, i like them to be pre 70 and slammed. Preference would be Square, Notch then Fasty. But hey a set of 5 spoke empi's always look good.... 🙂

Its scary

If you asked me a year ago about type 3s I would not of taken a real intrest in them if i did have to chose it would of have to of been an early square but if you ask now I'd be swinging towards an early notch which was one of my least liked type 3s.

Scary how some cars get under your skin.

At the end of the day there all air cooled so who cares!!!!! :P

But if I had enough cash I would have a colection of all early model air-cooled VW's. I like ovals, splits karmans you name Id have it.
:kiss love em all
