Hot Rods So I had this car out in the barn.....

But I wanted an RPU! This is what I ended up with..............

 

what did it start out as? looks good

 

looks like one of those German Fords to me

 

Well, the German part is right. It was a '71 VW Bug.

 

ok you had me fooled!! wow i like it nice work

 

it was a what? holy shit

 

I bet Hitler would shit the golden brick if he ever saw what you did to his car LOL. I love it and a VW would be the last ting would have thought of!

 

I did sort of a build thread in my intro thread. I did not know how it would go over in the main forum. Here is the link to that:

couldnt find a 30's cab??

 

Kool lookin man!!

 

Not that I could afford at the time. I have seen a couple since starting the build, but I already had time and money invested in this.

 

Read your build thread, very interesting. Wish I had the skill to do that. Have fun with it.

 

Never would've thought VW, wow looks great!!!

 

Thats wicked cool.. Awesome job Mate.

 

Is it still registered as a v.w.? That would be fun if pulled over by a cop.

 

Yes, it is registered as a VW.

 

Cool ride - I can appreciate the skills ...

 

great job

 

Geeze Len.. you should have made them guess for a while!
And if anyone doesn't like it... they don't have to ask for a ride.

 

Nice Work man..........

 

a fuckin bug- you had me fooled for sure- looks pretty bitchin!!

 

My dear God you guy's are anti-VW. If this isn't HAMBy enough for you then there's no pleasing.

Great build!

 

WOW-lot of work to start with a bug and end up with a cool FRONT engine truck, goo job!

 

Just goes to show what talent, a good eye and no biases will do.

 

That's really traditional, doing your own thing!! Taking next to nothing and making a cool ride that no one would have guessed what it started out as. Amazing!!
