hey this is quite a long shot but when I was a really young kid, around 1998-2000 I lived in Baldwin on long island NY and there was a guy named Al who lived there and he had a yard full of junk and a garage with a black 1966 Volkswagen beetle that he had converted into a covered bed pickup truck.
I have no pictures of it to my knowledge but the front of it was a stock '66 bug but he had moved the turn signals to behind the horn grills, the 'bed' and whole back end of it was made from an old oil drum (the kind for a house, the large flat sided curved top 'stand up' outback kind) and had stained wood post's with a tan canvas cover over the 'bed' and the rear window on the back of the cab was either round or an oval shape.
my memory's not perfect but I recall the overall product being decently nice looking for what it was.
does anyone have any pictures of this car, ever seen it or know where it is today? |
