Here is the 74 Super that I bought for my wife.

What a girl- I asked her what she wanted for her Birthday, and without hesitation she said "A Volkswagen Bug!"

Good for her - are the both of you going to work on it? My husband and I enjoy working on our 68 and 73 bugs together.

Looks like it needs some brake work....

Nice wheels. Any idea where I would find a set? What are they called?

They look like Weld Draglites.

They are Draglites. I haven't been able to find anyone that sells them though.

She doesn't do much work on it, although I did get her to help me bleed the brakes.

She also helped me out with cleaning the tin on the bus before I painted it.

:D

Yes, it did!

It was running on Front brakes only, and very spongy ones at that.

Those aren't draglites. Those are some wheels JC Whitney sells.

What's left of the logo on the centercap looks to say "Weld."
