Rims from Bug featured in Vol 1 OZVW
Hi,
I recently (over 12 months ago now) purchased the 68 that featured on page 58 in Vol 1 of VW Australia mag.
According to the article, the vehicle was resto'd/built buy a guy named Robert Newman. The vehicle at time of print, had a set of Green color coded
15" Custom Wheels.
I am just wondering if anyone out there in the VW community knows the whereabouts of these rims?
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you. |

Throw a Marlbro in his mouth at the time, and you could have two sponsors for the one add.....

They did look big (if that is what you are referring to, and not the popularity). Car has different tires now, and has a totally different stance.
