My project car for the last 2 years,I have fitted a 1600 twin port (std) apart from a sports exhaust system.with the valuable help of my son-in-law (Eric) we stripped the whole car down,cut out some rust areas along with turning it into a convertible. I have been a Vdub nut for over 40 years,I find them easy to work on and with contacts in various vdub clubs,parts are never a problem.I will update when she finally rolls out!
May 21, 2010Restored 86,000 miles Complete chrome engine, all new interior, new paint job, ( you could put a Porsche 911 engine in it) Has guts for a little 4 cylinder bow engine Just a fun classic style ride Trunk is in the front
July 10, 2009I drove one for 14 years; it started and ran well every day! What more could you ask? After that, when I saw one, I would always smile and wish I had never sold it. I recently bought another 1973 Super Beetle. Still always worth a smile.
