New addition..

[fleaboy]

Picked her up over the weekend.
Its Dads midlife crisis, has a little bit of work to do on it but will be done in no time hopefully.

its a 75 L, so that means it doesnt have the metal dash, but has curved windscreen and a 1600 at the back.





What you think?

nice my sister has a beetle, 75 model aswell doesn't have the indicators in the bumper bar though.

looks in pretty good shape how much cancer does she have

[fleaboy]

Ah doesnt have any major cancer, the only rust is just minor surface rust.
We have to lower the front, find some bigger wheels to fill the gaurds properly, and an exhaust system. But first things first we have to get a roady, may have a slight problem with a rear seat belt.. thinking if we just remove the back ones the mech will just presume that they didnt have them like the majority of the ones before it.

sounds like a good find then.

does it have mac pherson strut front suspension

and defiantly some bigger wheels, i think the superbug's had fatter whells on them

[fleaboy]

Ah wouldnt have a clue if it has mac pherson strut front suspension on it. Its the first beetle ive actually been able to get in and have a sticky beak. Very interesting cars they are...

Porsche 18s ftw

Lower it, keep it fairly stock lookin and maybe porsche 356 hubcaps

My sister has a 67 beetle (flat windscreen, 6v electrics and matal dash ) and it's a great car. Goes surprisingly well for a 1300cc 4 speed.
