Just scored a new Beetle for the Garage!(New pics after the resto 14 Nov 04).

I just scored this little bad boy for nothing, thanks to the wife. She's got real nice lines and the true Beetle shape, the bonus is she's a 1300w aswell.

I'm thinking about using this one as a bit of thrasher. I think the compretion may be a little low, but nothing a good clean up won't fix.

How many of you guys thought I was talking about a car? lol. The wife updated to a Dyson a while back, so I scored the Beetle for the Shed.

Just checked the compression and she goes alright, 120 all round.lol.


VWFREAK - November 1st, 2004 at 03:01 PM

Needs a wash and a polish and she'll come up alright, or should I Rat it.lol


CoopGirl - November 1st, 2004 at 03:03 PM

Looks like she could really suck.

LMAO!!!!!!! :D:D

pyr0 - November 1st, 2004 at 03:06 PM

VWFREAK - November 1st, 2004 at 03:10 PM

She's designed for MVA victims ( no arms ) you drive with your feet. Bit tricky at first, maily because I'm male, I had to get the wife to show me how it works.lol.


pyr0 - November 1st, 2004 at 03:11 PM

buzzbug - November 1st, 2004 at 09:28 PM

so thats the new electric hybrid beetle that they have been carrying on about.


VWFREAK - November 3rd, 2004 at 10:44 AM

She's still running a little too rough for my liking, so I might have to get Vintage Vee Dub to take a look. " That another Vintage Vee Dub plug for you Dave".lol.


oval TOFU - November 3rd, 2004 at 01:47 PM

Those Dayco Racing stickers HAVE to add at least another 20W... lol


glider69 - November 6th, 2004 at 07:52 PM

THAT SUCKS!!!


VWFREAK - November 8th, 2004 at 11:30 AM

She goes alright, I wouldn't say she sucks,lol, and the stickers add atleast 20w. I'm toying with some custom paint work just to set her off. Flames of course.


pyr0 - November 8th, 2004 at 11:55 AM
