Hi Guys,

Thought i's share a recent purchase. Real early, (one of first German 68's made) Ruby Red Beetle. It has only had the one original owner prior to me buying it, 118,000miles, nice and original. needs some small paint touch ups but otherwise stock as a rock!

Cheers
Paul

Very nice pick up Paul!

Just drop it a couple inches (Thanks to Craig!) bolt on some Air evo 17x7 fuch replicas rims and that will be it! Then Enjoy!

I will drive it until the Tijuana Taxi is finished, then it may be up for sale.

Cheers :cool:
