Wow, they had cars with wooden wheels back then? I thought they only had round rocks for wheels in pre-historic times.  ;D

this was in about 92 it'd taken me 4 years to get it looking like that ::)

 ??? >:(  WTF??  Another episode of "Let's Beat Up the Old Guy?"  You better get your gloves on...here's a pic of YOUR first POS!   ;D ;)

Here's mine. 1972 Honda 600 sedan. It was not a VW but still air cooled. I blew the engine and put an add in the local paper to give it away and a guy named David Honda (yes Honda) came by and gave me $500 for it and a1969 parts car. He claimed he was the grandson of Soichiro Honda and he was putting it on a container ship to send it to Germany for a complete restoration and it may go into the Honda collection. 

You guys are wrong..........this was Sheep's first car. He loved the magazine so much he had to get a truck named after it.  :o

Just so you know...    Sarge really isn't that old!  My age trumps his....

You should know we are proud of having survived so long, at least I am.   Now give Sarge a break!

I'll try to dig up a photo of my first car.  It isn't a VW.  My first bug is the one I am driving now and have had it for 23 years.

72 1200A with early panels... That's the day I picked it up, well my Dad as I couldn't drive then. First thing I did was junk the towelrail parts to the bumper, launch the reversing light in the bin and paint all of the wheels silver. The 1641 lasted about 6 months before I grenaded it. Put a Big Boys Toys 'big bore' 1700 piece of shit which flew for all of the 10 minutes it lasted  >:(

Fabs....it's YOU!!  :o ;D ::)

COOL thats pretty much what I started with 1200A (base models) ROCK mine was sky blue  and my dad taught me to drive in mine - I still own the car today - I don't have any "digital" pic's of her back then but here whats left of her now  ;) :)

Hey Sarge did you build a car out of your pubic hair, Oh wait never mind its not grey

I don't want to know how Sheep knows the color of Sarge's pubic hair.  :o

This is gettin' scary!

I love this place. We can get so ludicrously sidetracked from the original topic and nobody get's butt hurt, except maybe Sheep but he's used to it ;D

anybodys thats old enough to remember when Little House on the Prairie was prime time would have to grey pubes.

I don't need to know about that either!  Hey Sheep, wasn't your first car a basket case?

Hey thats a picture of somebody ripping my car off. Where did you get that, hahahaha

Is this Soda- Bryan Wenzel's first car/bike?

is that a wombat???????????

That or we have convinced the Euros that Americans are homophobic lunatics and we will all be banned shortly.  :D

Can you guys keep to the topic? Its getting a little old.

No disrespect, but the original post was "off topic". Probably should have posted in Off Topic instead of Cal Look.

Yes, it should have been.....  ::)

This is mine, I've still got it

We all had to start somewhere dude - My first 1200 had a "Cow Skin" interior  :D :D :D

Yes, all i have to say is: it is 21 years ago and i think i`ll be better now (and fatter:-)

good shot of a car with 2.0L alloys

There... fixed it, Sarge. G = grass.

 ;D

But this, seriously, was my first car. Mom & Dad bought it for me in the '60s. I remember it well.

 Then, at seventeen, I bought my first real car in 1979. A 1966 Beetle that was only 13 years young. Originally factory white with a brown interior. Later, orange with a custom naugahyde interior by Suzy at VeeDub Seatcovers in Orange County.

(edit) Hey, just noticed that Rayburn's parents graced him with the same car as mine. COOL! My ladders were on the outside. Looks like John's were on the inside. Heavy.
