My first car - 1960 Beetle [updated]
My first car had to be a veedub so my dad and I bought this white 1960 beetle, the original owner bought it from new... so everything in it now is
pretty much original...except there's seat belts in the front, and the semaphores were taken out a long time ago...
here's some pics of him (he's still unamed...any suggestions?)

Hi Canni
The pics didn't work are you able to store them in 'My Pictures' on your computer
Resize them to 450 X400 is what I do now
Then you click the browse button below when you're posting and choose the pic from it's folder onn your computer
Your Avatar is great:thumb
That must be 'him', right?
Do you have any names jumping out at you yet yourself?
Maybe 'Wolf's Cousin'

What colour is she? Name her after that.
ie: white.= cystal
Beige = Fawn
one of my friends has an oval, it's pidgeon blue, so he calls her Pidgeon, he also has a splitty thats red so he call's her Ruby.
