My Mum had a 79 super beetle convertable when I was a kid. Nice little car. The only air cooled I had was a 72 Beetle with a dual port 1600 kitted to 1832. I was running dual webbers and a megaphone exhaust on it. Sold it to a kid years back who left it sit out in the rain with no cover over the megaphone and it proceeded to fill up with water and then freeze and crack the jugs. Fun car while I had it though. neighbors loved it ;D

Used to have a Beetle 1303. loved it to bits, unfortunately it fell to bits  :(
Would love another one now but not at the expense of a GTI

I love aircooled v-dubs too. Always had a soft spot for a camper van, has to be a bay window with the indicators above the bumpers. will get one one day.

I just got pissed off with the majority of twits who drive around in aircooled vw's.

I used to cringe when I saw another bunch of goateed, surfing gear wearing, techno listening mupets.


And the scene started to get snobbish - Empi/Scat parts and all that


IMHO
  :P

dont like surfing, dont have a goatie, and dont like techno!  :D

less of the stereotyping though, people might think we all wear baseball caps backwards and listen to happy hardcore  ;)
