Hey guys,
a buddy told me to check out the site so here I am. Im from canton, i'm true dubber through and through. Here are some pics of my dubs let me know what you think...

daily-2000 jetta 2.slow- haven't done much to it since its the daily, is lowered on racelands, longbeaches, shaved airbox, poly mounts, wood trunk, plaid interior inserts, and side makers have been painted to match the car. (the car is a little lower now...and its also level)

75 swallowtail rabbit (otherwise known as Grabbit) on coils, 1.6 8v, Miami Blue

Well, the oval has plenty of rust but as soon as the rabbit is done, the oval will be cleaned up, and all the rust taken care of. I dont see the point in paying for a car and intentionally making it disintegrate. thats just me...

Thanks for the welcomes! there are so many sick on here!

That Oval is beautiful. I'm an ex-bugfreak myself, mostly offroad toys and buses though.

Very cool. I'll always have a soft spot for the Bugs. I sold off my slammed and cammed Beetle not too terribly long ago. It's in my avatar I believe.

yea, im 59 euro rag on GA dubs...

thanks for all the complements guys.

I live in Canton, so that makes sense....

as of now im putting a new clutch in the rabbit, and fixing up some smoothies that i might throw on the oval for a while, haven't quite decided for sure...if i do they will be the same color as the engine tin... what do ya'll think? keep wide fives or go with smoothies?

anyone on here heading up to bugapaluza? i should be up there in the oval, just registered for the show and camping...
