Title: Newbie...! Post by: zmaricz on March 06, 2008, 11:14:11 am Hello!
i'm Zoran, 19yrs old from poole, dorset (south england) had my first veedub since october last year - its a 1972 1200 bug fitted with a 1500 splitty engine. it's reasonably cal look, but martin (the guy with the gold beetle who's been beating porsches up the strip lately) told me to check this forum out to turn it into a proper cal looker! so here's a pic of when i bought it: (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y71/zmaricz/mybug4-1.jpg) doesnt really show how low she is at the front as its parked on a sloped drive (she's got quite a rake on a flat road!) and she's got lower profile tyres on the front now ;) she's getting t-bars on saturday :) Title: Re: Newbie...!
