You will want to check my Custom Bug out =)
Hey everyone, i thought there should be a topic for modded bugs only. Like bodywork mods and other things like that. Help me make this one big by
posting your pics of your rides up here.
To start this off:
My 72/74 Beetle, as you can tell it has had alot of work done to it. Around where I live (Banora Point, NSW) i se heaps of P platers with their
skylines, commodores and WRX's driving around but I never see any VW Beetles. If you see me driving around yell out or something 
If anyone wants to go for a cruise with a few bugs send me an email and we can organise something (black.beetle@hotmail.com).
Enjoy and post up your pics

Love it when someone does something this different. I like it and can certainly appreciate the amount of quality work that has gone into the build.
Drop the front and inch though
Well done!

i saw the picture and thought nice cat. it kind of scares me that so many others did similar. i think the car is certainly different. i do like it for
what it is and i would be happy to own it. i wouldn't create it either though. I think the waste of a dub comment was uncalled for.
It has alot of nice qualities that people don't seem to have mentioned. The finish on it looks beautiful and the interior is pretty tidy.

Love the interior, obviously a heap of dedication gone into the finish. Found the cat, found the horse, found the chook and after a while and going a
bit outside the square (hate that term) found the bird.
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross a road without being asked for it's motive!

A mate of mine had a bug with a similar kit on it in the early 80s. He sold it when he got married, then for years both him and his wife wished they
hadn't sold it. Then it came up for sale again in 'Unique Cars', somewhat run down though (and a lot cheaper than they had sold it for), so they
bought it back, stripped it down, and re-built it again. He eventually sold it when his marriage broke up. It certainly attracted attention though.
From your ole' mate Jeff
