There is a certain correlation involved in appraising those in the questionable female variety. Stare at your dominate hand for a bit, look back at the female in question and then back at said hand. If the hand turns out more desirable, you can scream at the horror. If the female is more desirable, you either need to adjust your preferences or put your hand in your mouth and not complain
That being said, I will scream at both the woman and then cry over the aborted bus

I'm surprised its only on one side.. and not the drivers side? Maybe trying to base it off of a taxi?

I still don't get it. OK marginally better passenger access, but the loss of strength from no fixed B post, and the mystery of how those two catches interlock to keep the door shut is beyond me.

Some people think they stopped making beetles after 1957. Some people think they stopped making buses in March 55, or August 58, or August 63, or July 67.
Some think that if your beetle has a padded dash, it's an engine donor. Some think that if it has push button door handles, it's a boat anchor.
Do what you want. Ignore the elitists. Drive your VW. Enjoy life. |

I believe that the rear door is held shut by pins top and bottom, and once secured the front door closes using the normal hardware. |
