My Millie!
BettyBoop - November 9th, 2003 at 08:05 PM

I have a '67 bug... modified 1300cc engine to a 1600cc... use to be a 6 volt system and now is 12 volt. Has a cd player, 2x 6x9s, 2x 6" sub woofas, 2x tweeters, flames, dice valve caps and an added extra for joy riders... the JESUS BAR! So... Get in... sit down... shut up... hang on and ENJOY!:D:thumb:P:cool:

all complete with Betty Boop accessories!

i cant wait for those pics of the flames :thumb flames are soo sweet on bugs :cool:


BettyBoop - November 11th, 2003 at 02:16 PM

the restoration itself took approx 6mths from gettin the car... booking it in... fiddling around with everything... then finding out so much more needed to be done... A lot of the seal ridges around the bonnet and that had to b reconstructed bcos they were rusted away... all to gettin it road worthy approved and registered... i will take the album with me to the goldy show this weekend... AND YES i know I WILL TAKE PICS OF THE FLAMES!!!!!!!!! :P:D:thumb

I am in the process of makin a white shirt for sunday with betty boop on the bak of it... so that i MAY b slightly recognisable depending on how many betty boop fans there are :P

WAT IF... i got an alarm installed with sensor and if you step too close to the car it goes 'Boop-oop-a-doop!" and if you stay close to it 'wat part of boop-oop-a-doop' DONT YOU UNDERSTAND!" HEHEHEHEHEHEHE

ciao for now


Y2K - November 13th, 2003 at 07:17 AM

Hey ive just realised that ive met you before(well sort off). Ive got a foto of you in millie at 'wintersun'. I was the crazy blonde chic that stepped in front of millie and took a foto when you's were cutting laps at night.
Any way ill met up with you again on Sunday. Dont think theres gonna be to many new beetles so you wont miss me.
