I found these pics on the samba and thought they really summed up what having a baja or buggy is all about. I also like this baja because it's the same year model as mine and is almost the same in all other respects.

Quote form pics:
"Betty is a 1962 Beetle with some Baja modification to allow access to soft sand tracks on the east coast of Australia. Fraser Island is the largest sand Island in the world,here Betty can be found discovering new surfing locations and perched crystal clear warm lakes. The bug is essentially standard with raised suspension front and rear with fat tall tyres all round, the engine is a ported and polished 1600cc twin port.Happy driving and thanks to Ferdinand Porsche for the initial design of the beetle,pure genius!!!!"
