The Rust Slut
Hey guys!
Here is my other car.. my 62 beetle the Rust Slut. Its my daily car but I usually change between my bus and Lime every few days
Im the second owner of this car and it sat since 1985! I bought it for $100 about two years ago. Put some time into it and now I drive it pretty much
daily!

The car still has the OG 40hp engine with over 200,000 miles!
Now has a 4 inch narrowed beam and CB spindles with 135 tires. Out back its two outer splines with 165's. I recently installed a 67 trans but I dont
really like the long axles... They look good with the wheels but on stock wheels I didnt like it
Future plans are new tranny, short axles and the stock wheels and whitewalls back on... I loved that look!
I will just put the Fuchs on my bus!

Nice one - I love that pic of the RHS wheel with the truck in the background (moving shot)....that's gold! also the snow pics are fantastic
How did you manage to get the 4in beam in? Modified/no shock towers or inner arch body mods?
Cheers
Alan

Thanks for the props on my rides guys!
The dude that hung out the window to get the rolling shot was my friend Derrick - Its one of my Favorite pics!
- As for the beam, its just a four inch with NO shocks. I have a six inch in the works, but the car drives so well I might not finish it for this car!
I will try to keep pics posted up and all that
