I'm currently living in Indonesia and the VW scene is pretty big here - mainly circuit racing and club events. I was invited to a warehouse, to look at couples cars. I didn't like the cars they showed me, but away in the far corner, covered in dust and rubbish - there was it - a 1961 being purposely built for drag racing. This beetle has been sitting there for the last 6 years. No rust.
Chopped top, laid back front windscreen, rear split window, full fibre glass front and rear, full roll cage - with a wild paint job. No engine, which is cool with me. Coz I plan to put a 13.BT in it when I get it home.
Cost of vehicle was $550.00
bagus sekali!
Host pics on photobucket and upload and resize. What is it you are asking??

Hey Layback.
Where are you based in indo? I am coming over work in June/July for a 4 weeks with the aim of moving over to Jakarta for a few years if I like it. I would have thought the VW scene would have been pretty small? whats the who motorsport (track or rally) scene like over there?

Pink, purple, and yellow are my daughter's fave colours. Magenta looks like a great pink or light cranberry, my favourite colour is the turquoise/aqua blue however I do like the graphics - I definitely like the late 90s American style drag racing colour scheme. I come from Canberra.

13bt is the cheapest power option around
