1962 Baja and 1962 Beetle

billholmes - March 4th, 2005 at 07:22 PM

Just thought i'd put a pic of the little bugs of the Holmes Clan.
The Baja is my fathers which has a 1600TP with a 1300 gearbox with Type 3 axles. The most funny thing about this car is that it has a Road Runner horn on it and it is starting to sound a bit sick! This is the families first ever Beetle. The one behind is mine with a 1600TP and a 1200 gearbox. Both are 12 Volt and they go like a dream. The Baja has got 15.7 rims on the front which are let down to 10 Pound and the back are 15.10 which are let down to 8 pound. It will go anywhere. While the other bug has 15" on the back and 14" on the front. Cheers Will.

You can drop it off if ya like but that shed in the pic now belongs to someone else (parents sold their house)....so they may not welcome your delivery with open arms

billholmes - March 15th, 2005 at 12:15 PM

Last night my dad borrowed the 62 beetle and he hit a kangaroo. I received the phone call last night. The damage is only small (bent numberplate) and a couple of small dents in the bumper.
All is well though.

Canni. - March 16th, 2005 at 04:47 PM

glad there was only minimal damage..

My family's beetles-
Front- Heidi 1960...mine
Middle- Wolf 1965 ..Cousins..Jay_1965
Back- White Lightning.. (can't remember year) Uncles..

Missing is my granpa's '75...hehehe just a matter of coincidence that they are all white..
