my new 50 year old bug

Post by rbearclaw »

I was driving home from church a few Sunday's ago, and saw a bug parked nearby with a for sale sign in it. I did a u-turn with the kids in the car, and we all looked at it in awe. I said, "I have to have this car!" I had one in HS, and always wanted another. Anyway, I bought it within a few days, and it is now our beach/city car. I take the kids to school in it every morning, and all the kids in the neighborhood love it. It needs some work, and I can't wait to get started. So glad to be a part of this group! :D

Nice find and great shape.
I get mine today but it must be newer as it is coming in many boxes and some assembly required.....a lot of assemble required! Always wanted one from HS too not sure why but that day has arrived.
