There are some 50 year old ones about now, so there should be still some left in another 50 years.

[size=4]If the truth be known... the Mexican Beetles are NOT the Quality of the VWs We are driving Now.... The Mexican Beetles were sold in the
philippines , and I was told that they are virtually worthless used, as they rust very badly, and the quality is just NOT there... they DO look great
though.....[/size]:o:thumb:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce
