15yrs old... my bug
Well if anyone has followed my story of moonlite...
i have been into VW's for over 3 years now and been building one in particular... however this is my first ever licenced car.
Its a 1964 beetle with a 1800 motor in it. Its been sprayed in gunmetalgrey and i am awfully proud of it.
some pics...
(hope this works)

nah from the person of who i originally bought the engine off he said he had a stock 1600 and ran an 1800 bore in it.
The colour hasnt been buffed yet... hopefully it should come up a little better, but i love it as it is

That probably means you have an 1835cc engine. Plenty of torque
Especially with twin carbs |
