I'm stoked I need to put the engine back in it this week, the previous owner was using it in a different car.
It's a 1972 Bug with a 1937 Ford front end.

I have a lot of big plans for this bug, I absolutely love the shape with that front end on it. It was love at first sight and I had to have it. It's so unique. I'll be posting tons of pics in my build thread and I'll be doing lots of videos for this car as well.
I'm going to be putting the motor back in tomorrow and taking it for a drive this weekend.

Have fun telling everyone the engine is in the back and that there's a gas tank up front
It's good to be unique! _________________ 1973 karmann ghia - current, not the last VW.

This is an awesome idea actually. Then maybe I can file for an electric car tax refund.

Yeah, no kidding! I can't wait to start driving it around, and I really can't wait to start doing restore vids on it. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/velocitylabs |
