1974 Volkswagen Beetle Reviews
| “Awesome Little Classic” This is a classic Volkswagen Super Beetle. They made about a million of them, or more. It was quite ahead of its time. It gets good gas mileage for a 1974. (about 26 MPG) It is super slow, and super fun. They are easy to get parts for and easy to work on. They are also a pain in the winter because of the poor defrost capabilities. But they perform well in the snow because the engine is over the rear tires. Overall the beetle has a lot of character, and I would rather drive an old bug than some little POS.
Pros —
Cheap, gas mileage, fun.
Cons —
Winter in a cold place, but good in the snow!

| “V-dub” Mustang's and Camero's...or their owners don't like it. Handles pretty good but has a rough ride. Exhaust sounds good with single 2-1/2" glass pack and manderal bent exhaust. Interior is sparce with vinal seats and rubber floormatts but what more could you want. Gets lots of looks...
Pros —
Street Legal Go-Kart
Cons —
Rough Ride

You can't kill 'em. As long as the floors don't rust out they will last forever. They are also so ugly they are cool!

Cons —
Rusts easily if not cared for properly.

| “Classis Beetle” It's a classic... a little rough around the edges but what can you say? It's over 30 years old! Still a very solid little car... still needs some work it be in tip-top condition though. Very fun to drive... just hot in the summer without any air conditioning! ;-) Long throws in the transmission and a little vague but goes into gear easily... just takes a little getting used to if you have never driven an old car with a manual transmission before.
Pros —
Cute, fun to drive, a classic
Cons —
No a/c

| “Custom Bugatti Replicar” We built this Custom Bugatti for Classic Motor Carriages in Miami, Fl. They needed a prototype so we built this and did a builders manual and make a slide show to go with it to help them in sales since no one at the factory ever built one. We uses 19' Ford Model "A" wheels and tires with large headlights to make it look like a real classic. It was a one of a kind car and last I hear someone in Ohio bought it.
Pros —
VW drivetrain was fun to drive
Cons —
Couldn't keep it
