RE: I gots me a V Dubs
my dad told me a while ago that he had a vw just like that with the biggest motor and a air cleaner on every cylinder. He told me that he used to race it up against the 70's era muscle cars.
He said that he would kill them off the line but the muscle cars had the top end tourqe.
There are alot of performance parts for those you should check it out, looks nice by the way.GL

Looks like a super beetle, fun to mess around with, no ECUs to get in the way.

RE: I gots me a V Dubs
ah, the mighty air cooled beetles.... not like the current water bugs/ any way, my dad and brother lives for these cars..... and trust me some of them are NASTY!!! VERY VERY LIGHT, and can get alot of power out of one if u know what u r doing.... my brother has a manx dune buggy he and i built from scratch, never thought it would take out mustang 5.0s at the light.... (to bad it is maxed out at 80....) lol.... but when the front wheels come off the ground, the 5.0 guys all just look and wonder.... fun cars and very very easy to work on... should build the hell out if it spikey, can be faster than ur neon, and alot cheaper... sorry but it is the truth.......

RE: I gots me a V Dubs
this is kinda funny for me. I'm from europe, back home nobody appriciates this cars. they give it for free, happy to get rid of them, or if they're still working, very cheap.there are people that restores andmodifythem, some of them look really good, but most of they're considered junk. any way, happy for u. curious what will come out of it.
