Aircooled VW South Africa

Hi guys all these beetles were spotted in the same place but owned by diffrent people .
in a complex with flats .isn't that a coincidence

the green and black one had a 1400 engine .
the yellow one --------------
and the sp body was taken off to fit the buggy body.



will only post a pic of what happened to the yellow beetle if you guys fiqure out what happened.
lets see who gets it first .

clues will be provided when requested .

Is that a bullet hole in the windscreen? or the drivers head from the inside?

every aircooled owner should have a fire extinguisher its a must .btw what is an auto extinguish ...
