Alright gals and guys, We all take inspiration for our builds from other buggies and VW's. Lets post em for all to see. I'm sure many of you can relate to spending hours online looking for ideas and inspiration like I do.

Too Cool. Thanks for posting mine, I'm flattered.
I really like this angle, it's my best side LOL.

Great thread idea, wish I had this to look at during my build up.
If I had to pick one car that inspired me I'd have to say it was Murzi's car.
A lot of cool cars have showed up since, or maybe I just didn't find them. This thread will help prevent that from happening! I love it!!!

Glasser(fellow canadian eh)... I enjoyed reading about your build and your neighbors. Lots of good information. When I first seen your buggy I imediatly knew I wanted smart car tires on the front of my car. And.. I enjoy the rear aswell;)

There should be enough buggy pictures in my gallery to inspire everyone:

Inspiration should also come from the fact that all the buggies I have posted (except the red Berrien that lives at the dunes) are driven 7 hours to Silver Lake dunes then play for a week in the sand then make the trip home.
