My first bug. Shes a 69 1500. All work on her was done by me part time (Between work and college).

- Custom mix of metallic and pearl base paint
- Stock 1500 motor with TNT exhaust and accuspark ignition on a 009 dizzy
- Empi wheels
- Backyard suspension drop all round
- all black vinyl interior with some custom budget touches and a banging sound system

May not appeal to some people but shes perfect to me

No pictures....

do yourself a favour - carry a spare points and condensor with you for when the accuspark ignition fails, which it will

I like the look. Different....
The engine will run cooler if you close off the holes in the tinware above the exhaust. Your engine will thank you
