I like this pic, it was just after washing 28 years of dust off the '66 Barn find.
With 10 VWs it's hard to pick a favorite..

Thanks! They're widened fiberglass fenders, i think 1 or 1.5 inches widened. 225/50/15 Kumho Victoracer DOT legal slicks on 15x8 wheels all the way around, stock width adjustable beam, bugpack sway bars front and rear, white kyb shocks, IRS rear with 944 torsion bars, puny 1776 engine.
It has plenty of grip, but not good enough handling, and it needs a lot more power. I'm working on improving it, little by little. But it's a lot of fun!

Here is my favorite shot of the 71 on the way home from picking it up in Seattle. Drove it 3000 miles home. Picture was taken along 101 in Northern California. One of the best vacations ever!!
