I've always wondered how those deflector shields are operated. Never had the chance to see one up close like this. Thanks for the photos. _________________ Confusious say it takes it takes two wipes to know you need three, but it takes three wipes to know it only needed two. |

Great photo, now if the people had White caps on it would be like a Snow Storm...  |
I was thinking the photo composition might look better with a red sunroof in the beetle.  |
I was thinking white sunroof but pigalle interior would fit the composition...  |
That would depend on the color of their undershirts.

Makes me think of crew from The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.
