My Pretty Blue Bug!
Finally, I own my obsession!
Since having first laid eyes on this 1970 Auto Beetle a few months ago, I have wanted it. I sold my 2003 Honda CR-V Sport for this Bug, and now it's mine!
I'm soooooo happy, and it's so fun to drive! 😀
🙂
It will be even better when we put in your stereo!
It will indeed! That'll top off it's cruisey-ness..... 😉
damn pretty bug, congrats on moving on to a 'real' car :thumb 😉
Reimagined/Recycled/Upcycled Cool
That ain't pretty. THATS SEXY😉

69' baja: kombi box, thing spindles, irs, disc front, type 3 rear drums, 2 inch lift kit, 31x10 rears. 👍
New engine in process: 94mm p&bs, 74mm C/w chomol Crank, 35.5x39 SP heads, turbo. Wierd combo, hopeful torque monsta!
Hahaha, thanx heaps baybuscamperkid!! 🙂
Wow.... I didn't think a Bug could look sexy.... that's why I opted for 'Pretty'.... 😉
All bugs are sexy !!!
She looks like one awesome ride. I think that I have seen her around ??????
🤘
I have only been driving her for 3 days..... but if you're in sth eastern suburbs of Melb, you may have seen her!
It's been nice (but I get so embarrassed!) having people stare at it when I drive past or stop at lights. Guess I'll have to get used to it! But I'm so proud to own a bug that looks so good. Stuy did a truly awesome job! 😀 The photos don't do it justice..... the paint is AMAZING in the sun! 😉nn[ Edited on 11/8/2005 by Pretty_Blue_Bug ]

I'll learn to type one day! :P

real, not plastic! Chrome, chrome and more chrome.
Thanx pod, I was beginning to wonder if I'd gone mad, selling my Honda for this Pretty Bug! But I'm lovin' my decision.... now I have a REAL car! 😉
And thanx Freddie Fender, I'm a happy chappy now!! 😀
I think that she was at the 2004 VWCV Day of the Volkswagen. I think that she was for sale then, I remember wanting to buy her and my spoil sport man said NO !!!!! NOT another VW!!!!! ( he is a Subaru man).
You will get used to people waving at you !!! I thought that it was strange at first and now I expect it !
🤘
Aaaah, yes, she was there then. 😉
I had my first VW Wave by a Kombi driver on Thursday! 🙂 I think it's awesome, I haven't heard of that happening with other-make-of-car drivers...
Ah the *wave*! Great 😀
Awsome beetle, you must be so in love!
Mel
GREAT LOOKING BEETLE WITH THOSE FUCHS PORSCHE WHEELS and maybe Porsche disc brakes.....

Anyway it is One Beautiful Beetle.......
That deserves to be waved at......
Best Wishes to You and the Beetle.....
You certainly would have won one of these trophies for sure......

You will notice a tell tale lamp between 80 & 90 MPH in Your speedo...
If this comes on, You will need to change back to Drive 1,
as Your Automatic Transmission fluid is too hot...
Driving in Drive 1 will let it cool down... [below 50 MPH]
You can drive Your Beetle using the 3 forward gears...
Low- Drive 1 & drive 2....
or Drive 1 & drive 2.....
Damien {killakornkobb] is having some of these stickers made.... to apply to Your ashtray... where they were originally....
cheers

proper preparation prevents piss poor performance
Thanx Greenbug70! 😀
Apparently Valiant drivers do the 'Valiant V' when they see another one pass by.... it's like a peace sign or something. Hahaha
But the VW Wave is much friendlier!
Congratulations. She looks fantastic. A real stunning colour. Now you will have to work out what her name will be.
Yogie
Congratulations. She looks beautiful.......enjoy
Thanx Baldy67! 😀
And Yogie, I've been trying to think of a name.... only one I could come up with is Gem as she's so pretty and sparkly in the sun! 😉
