My Girlfriends 73 Vw Beetle

73 VW Beetle

1500cc

4 Speed

15x6 chrome rims

 

Hey guys thought i would share some pictures of my girlfriends new car. I picked it up for her the other day, we are going to fix it up together slowly.

 

Got the car 'not running', it just needed a new battery! Runs like a charm, just needs some work with the linkages and the clutch cable snapped on my the other day.

 

No its not the nicest model beetle but it was an absolute bargain and she loves it.

 

Since we have had it I've fiddled with the splines and dropped the rear a tiny bit and I've lower the front a couple inches. Then we polished the car and polished the rims and put some Port-a-walls on her.

Was just skimming through this forum and saw a topic from you and had to look. You're rides are always HOT!!. ;) Got any interior pics?

 

Havent taken any interior shots as I'm currently playing with the shifter linkages and replacing the clutch cable so there is crap everywhere.

 

Interior is bog stock brown cotton with vinyl backing, no rips however!

Haha forgot everyone called these fattys. Not the most popular bug but at the price i paid it was a steal.

 

I'm kinda hoping i can sort out finances so I don't have to sell the W115, its priced much higher than most W115's so i don't think its going to move super fast :)

hehe... cool fat chick :)

 

love the colour...nice pick up

Both left lights have had water in them previously. The paint on the passenger side seems to be better so maybe the other way round?

 

Yup this is the superbug, the most unpopular beetle as they are the biggest.

oh right, i like the superbugs, mum had a white one, dad chucked out the whale tail it had and put a standard boot/bonnet back on it, it was awesome, cept getting punched every morning and afternoon at school being 6 and mum owning a punch buggy :P

Playing punch buggy with the missus hmm? Wonder who's winning that one... :hmm:

 

Sweet ride, I agree with the twin cannons! :wink:
