    Default RHD 1971 VW Bug

    A friend of mine just picked this up. We took it to lunch today. Lots of fun (but slow).

    It's staying with the stock engine. He has other cars that are built for speed.

    I'm glad to hear all that crap is coming off the dash. Besides that, the car seems to be very well sorted.

    looks like a super beetle. good thing about those is the front lowering beam. you can lower them w/out much problems not like the actual bug
