Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: Bewitched666 on January 12, 2009, 18:02:12 pm Like the louvers,have some on my decklid now 8)
Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: Dave Rosique on January 12, 2009, 18:21:19 pm I even like the bumpers (somewhat anyway) Of course, I like buggy bumpers too... Rayburn USED to run a decklid just about like that one many moons ago ::) ~DR. Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: jick on January 12, 2009, 18:40:58 pm hmmmn?
Pat Ganahl sure knows his shit about hotrods. not so sure about the VW. ;) there are some very odd details on that car. Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: beetletom on January 12, 2009, 19:08:55 pm very cool!
Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: lowfastbus on January 12, 2009, 19:47:36 pm don't really like it, think it misses a nice stance...
Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: Dave Rosique on January 12, 2009, 20:05:36 pm Ha! I just remembered why I liked the bumpers... I built some black powdercoated bumpers that looked just like them years ago for a full bodied convertable Baja we built in the shop... Sorry, I Had to share that useless info with ya'. ~DR. Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: lawrence on January 12, 2009, 20:33:02 pm That car is pretty cool. The only thing I dont like is the front fender louvers. The stance is nice, im not a big fan of a cartoonish rake or cars that are too low in the front.
Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: Zach Gomulka on January 12, 2009, 20:51:19 pm I like it, in a different sort of way. Just needs a set of long axles!
Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: roland on January 12, 2009, 21:50:50 pm Not cool!
Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: Fastbrit on January 12, 2009, 22:00:56 pm I always hated that car. But what do I Know... :D
Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: JS on January 12, 2009, 22:05:33 pm Louvers on the decklid look cool, but not those on the fenders and the glove box lid. Not a big fan of the exhaust, the idea is nice but the proportions look strange to me. I guess this car has short axles, it could really use to have the wheel further out in the rear arch. Overall itīs a nice car though.
Did we have a thread about this car about a year ago? Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: flatcat60 on January 14, 2009, 05:55:59 am the guy i was working with at a schwinn dealer owns it,still looks the same its in michigan.

Title: Re: hod rod bug Post by: Fastbrit on February 07, 2009, 11:33:07 am Pat was (is) always known as 'too tall', so it's quite amusing that he should choose a Bug as his daily! He's about 6ft 3in tall (er, I guess that's just under 2 metres), so must have been a tight fit with stock(-ish) seats. :D

I'm 6'5" (1.94m) and I'm sure he's around 6'8" (2m)!
