The Green Machine!
I loved my Bug. It was a Super Beetle, and not just a Beetle. You can tell by the windshields. The Super Beetle has a curved front glass, whereas the Beetle's is flat. Mine was exactly this color...only add a couple of rust and primer spots. :)
Pros: It was a very fun car...
Cons: ...but it was so old. I think the floor was about to rust out. There was always water in the oil. The front windshield frosted on the inside in the cold weather. The door handles didn't work, so I used the little side windows to get in. And, last but certainly not least...it left me stranded more than once. It just needed more love than I could afford to give it at the time.
Mint Condition, Beautiful Unrestored Ride
Grandpa didn't want it any more and he bought it brand new in '73. Sat in his garage and in near perfect shape.
