Hi Bug T-

i'm from holland and i drive a 1967 1500 beetle, which is going into some minor surgery soon. you'll probably find the result here on the lounge.

i don't have much time, so it might take a while.
it will definitely be ready before next season's big meetings though.

I really dig the red cal looker in the background! Big tires in the rear, small in the front and a roll bar... I guess you use it in the dunes, with those paddle tires and KC hi-lites. ;D
Just teasin' ya. I have been traing and breeding trotting race horses on a farm until just a couple of years ago. I had a big Volvo BM840 4WD wheel loader.
