When I get the charging squared away it will be my daily driver

What’s going on with your charging system?

The wheels kinda grow on you, especially since I have 5 with new directional tires.

I kind of like the wheels. Very different. The steering wheel is also very unique.

I like stock (mine is very much so), but the same old stock stuff gets a bit repetitive, if you get my drift.

A/C and all? Sounds like a deal if you got a deal.

I payed less than the cost of tires!

[AlmostHeavenWV_VW]

For all the modification on the outside I wasn't expecting the interior and engine bay to be so (relatively) stock.

I hope that 'spider' design inside the steering wheel doesn't have as sharp of edges as it looks like it does. Careful with those sharp right or left turns at the stoplights, looks like that thing could slice a finger off!

A (mostly) stock bug with A/C, power windows and locks at a divorce sale for 'less than the price of a set of tires'?

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me, plus you've probably still got room in the budget still to make it precisely how you want it!

Keep us updated and keep loading up those pics! We love to see 'em!


Happy Bug'n

[Tim Donahoe]

Your accelerator-pump linkage on the right didn’t scrape on your new alternator?

Not bad. I'd drive it (for a while...then change a few things ).

Cool interior.

Hard to get pictures!

I like the third brake light. The taillights aren't bad on black car either.
