You know if he would just widen the rear fenders a little bit, it might look ok

I wonder if its running long or short axles in the rear? OR That'd look sick with an 8" narrowed beam! Take your pick.

I don't think you should take the piss really, albeit it's not my taste, but there's alot of work gone into that car and it's been lovingly put together. Just put together in a strange way

Remeber guys this is the cal look lounge not the 80's custom lounge, therefore any views against any car are just that - views, im sure the seller would have no problem selling the car too the 80's custom lounge members all 3 of them Ivan M. Martin Golden Balls Turbo. and Wray Morrison !!!! and im sure they would think we were daft going on about cal look cars all 974 of us....

The only problem with the bug is that you couldn't import it in normal conatiner due to having such a fat ass

Thats one ugly car 145 mph with a very tall 4th gear No, it's not down to a tall fourth, rumor is the owner had the sense to take it up into the mountains and got it up to that speed when he took it for a run down Bullshit Hill. He probably wouldn't have got above 140mph, if it wasn't for the tail wind on that particular day. As far as its looks are concerned my seeing-eye dog said it's 'the bomb'! But to give him credit, he did say he felt it'd look better after it had gone off! And there's that backing music on the video... 'I'm going to see, see it again.' Many would pay $24500 not to! Please note: nothing you have just read is true, and no animals were injured during this story. In reality - each to there own! I have just looked in the mirror and realized I have no place to mock anyone.
