    That's sweet Jeem! If it was mine I'd chop the cage and french the headlights. Maybe even make some cool Sprint car style nerf bars to fill out the sides under the body work. Hmm gotta start surfing craigslist....

    I can picture it now. "Judy here's your new car!" As you pull off the cover and yell "TADAAAA!" Then she probably says nothing and turns around and walks in the house. That's what my wife would do anyways.

    Whether it's a mini bike, motorized bicycle, motorcycle or big ass hit n' miss engines, even a vintage VW, whatever....make it old and make it soul-ful and your MAIN hot rod projects are even more enjoyable!

    BTW, this buggy is foo-king FUN.

    One star?

    NO stars would be fine (considering it IS a VW on a trad hot rod site)...but one star is like leaving two nickels and a penny as a tip.
