These Custom Bugs might seem way over the top to us these days, but back in the day, they were the pinnacle of Cool.. Wink

 You've got to admire the work and effort that went into them. These pictures are a great documentation of a 'Style' that's probably never coming back, so enjoy them for real.

 What amazes me about all the old pictures in the Lounge is that the Older VW's (Ovals, Splits etc) are the ones that seem to really 'GET' the treatment.

Keep the pictures coming.. Grin

If the price was right, I'd buy it in a minute, maybe even a second. I just talked about it this weekend (after seeing a horrendous square-eyed, spoilered mongrel) with LowFastBus, too bad the customscene is never coming back.

Any more pictures of the custom of all customs: the Pink Lady?

  This thread is great..

    I really love these Custom Bugs. The fact that there are so many in the same vien is cool.
 
     Who would be brave enough to give a Beetle that kind of treatment nowadays.

      Might be a good thing? Grin


 Oh.. PS: Georg.... You need to get out more  Wink
