Wrecked a good looking Beetle- CORRECT !!


Sam
You certainly did wreck Your Beetle...
and why wasn't the "W" deck lid on Your oval?? painted yellow I mean.....
Well, the "der nueburg Volks Klub" won't have many members with cars like that showing up on "SHOW & Shine "days....
I think You got it ALL wrong Sam.....
You should have called Your club the
"Rat look car club" and then the other 3 beetles could have stayed at Home......

Be a RAT if You want to.... I'm Not....


I forgot to say that I don't like ratty look anything......
Do a car up and You get praise, do a car down & You go down with it....
Everyone knows It takes time & money to keep a car nice & shiny & detailed...
It takes nothing to look like a RAT....
If You want to be a RAT... go right ahead..
I won't be looking at Your car.....

Restored Beetles NOT un restored Beetles.


If someone said You can buy that rat look beetle for $100, with ratty seats different coloured doors etc... or a nice beetle
- All ONE colour, nice re upholstered interior, for $500 .. which one would You buy if You had $500 ????
I would like to be sitting in the nice seats, in a one coloured car... Perfect...
The Rat look is for cars that Have NOT been restored.... not unrestored!!

well said, i fully agree!
my idea of rat look is a car that has been dragged out of a shed/barn/field/swamp.... and simply made driveable, not cleaned or painted or messed with at all apart from road worthiness requirements......and maybe some wheels and a motor ;)

the idea of changing parts around to 'create' a rat lok car doesn't quite make sense to me.

kai

p.s. my opinion is not intended to cause offence to anyone, it's just my opinion.

the idea is to have 'your' expression of ride. not the general concensus. certainly makes for a more entertaining car show when you have dubs with all sorts of finishes and qualities. not the 'gfk' style where all cars are done to the same format. not there is anything wrong with that concept either. it is also an accepted part of our community. rats, cal look, stock, german, and of course the piece of shit daily driver. they are all equal in my book.

what to you see the next evolution of bus80y. i am sure many will not agree, but it is mine.

Bring your rats over to the shiny side.

Come to the Paint & Body forum and respray your pan, paint that body with a super gloss, rechrome and retrim everything.

Trust us, trust us, trust us.

Dude, it wasn't directed at anyone inparticular. Just making an observation, this guy is showing his pride and joy and people are ratting on him pardon the pun rember the old saying if you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all.

The rat look is super individual. I think it is the best way to express your individuality without mega mega bucks.

I appreciate the work that goes in to making the car look as balanced or possibly unbalanced look as possible.

I suppose if you see a beetle painted in the newish Ford Blueprint colour, you can go and get yours done the same.

A rat can't be copied.

Keep up the good work. :D :thumb

I must be a bit like my cat. I like shiny things too. ;)

*punts helbus back to the shiny side*

people.... this is a RAT forum.
go for it VWFOOL :D:thumb
Don't be tempted by the minions of gloss and retrimming :D

"the farce is strong in this one.."

I like the rusted with chrome look, body straight, dumped, diff panels, paint worn thin, and perfect chrome that says "i made it this way on purpose". the clincher is an insanely hot motor, and mebbe one accessory, like a bazooka. or ICBM on the front seat.

might have to go lob a bucket of paint stripper over at the paint and body peeps.... brb :D

(have you ever met those old people who sit and watch the dreadful programming and immoral pornographic tv shows they hate, hour after hour after hour; seems silly, huh?) ;)

yeah you might take the piss out of the rat look, but when sam turned up at the euro day and everyone was standing around the ferrari all chubbed, all the attention turned straight to the rat, oh yes!, at that exact moment I knew who would take out the peoples choice award!. it was like mosses, everyone just parted which led him down to the german display! but when he got out and put the "Admire but dont touch" sign on his window, you know this rat was here to impress! lol ! Just needed the spider webs on the wheel arch sam, but you know that you got my vote!!:jesus

we rats are lean, mean, and dirty. not like the soft, overfed housebroken ones over there in the shiny area :P

in fact, I have already been on a raid, bandit style, and have returned unscathed with my loyal posse bwahahhahha!!!

all jokes aside, helbus is doing a very shiny job over there in the paint and body section, and may even inspire me to replace some bits. with rusty ones ;)

Well I suppose if you see anyone who is going to replace panels with super straight clean ones, make sure you grab the scraped and mismatched coloured ones. Even the ones that have had small repairs and primer patches.

I would consider it a form of recycling?

Yeah? :thumb
