PASSION FOR 66 BEETLE

Post by ykkocorp »

Hello to every 66 beetle fan, rescued a 66 beetle from destruction about 10 weeks back. Now my darling beetle is undergoing a complete restoration. I am getting it restored into its stock condition no altration except the previos owner converted the electrical system from 6v to 12v,
this I am letting t remain to 12v. the color is bahama blue, am waiting for the birth certificate to be delivered. Hopefully to post pics by november 09. Oh just one morething myself and my wife used to drvie a beetle as a daily driver some 20 years back, and whenever we saw one drive past us we wished to own this beauty again and we are so happy to get beetle back in our family. Our kids whom we took for rides in the beetle now they themselves look forward driving this all time classic.

The web is a pretty awesome thing. Where else can you connect with families in Pakistan that share a love for Volkswagen Beetles. Very cool if you stop and think about it! Welcome to the community.

Welcome Muhammad to the 66 community. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your car.
I am sure the car gives you and your family lots of happiness and the stares from people as you drive pass them.
Glad that you finally bought the 66 manual. It's a good reference book which I use very often.
