Hot Rod

Post by MELLO YELLOW »

I have aquired a beetle from a friend :drunks:
I was pondering what to do with it and looking though some old volkworld mag I came across a feature on Dr Gonzo (Oct 2005) and that quite appealed to me so I have decided to build a Hot Rod :hangloose:
Now it will no be an exact rep of that one (the front susp looks way to expensive) :shock: :shock:
And then maybe when I eventually get the hang of posting pics on the forum I will do so. :oops: :oops:

A hot rod bug is a good idea they are so retro

This has to be the best VW hotrod I've ever seen. From one of the Volksworld mags.
