hey all
im warren and im 18. i own a 1968 beetle (my first car) that i am currently restoring. at first i was planning to make a baja bug then decided to make a cool street bug. i have had it for about a year now and its currently in the paint shop. i am going to paint it white with a black interior. i have brought new panels for it to get the best end result i can. i am going to put a 4 point roll cage in it, made by my dad who runs flamin fabrications who specialise in that sort of stuff.
like all restoration projects there is still alot on the to do list...
i want to get a new motor, new rims, new exhaust, new breaks and get it on the road 😂
Welcome to Aussieveedubbers, look forward to seeing your progress
thankyou.. i will be uploading more pictures of it shortly

..Or.. OOOOOr.... Just a thought, maybe change it up a little and slam it on the ground so you can park it under the Patrol. 😀
No i'm not repainting it.

Horse power is how hard you hit the wall, torque is how far the wall moves after you hit it
