in regards to the classic car post i made yesterday then deleted that some of you saw a new car may be on the way, a 1970 VW beetle.

im getting it very very cheap, and its had some work done

chrome rims
dropped suspension
BIG tacho and shift light
(its left hand drive which i love)
orange respray (general lee colours anyone?)
1776cc lump
twin dellortos
hi-lift cam
factory fitted sunroof (rare)
remote oil cooler
fiberglass wings

just needs some decent brakes and a 5 speed box :D

and im keeping the bike whilst i sort this beetle :D

Thats awsome man! I love old beetles. Me and my dad have a 66 bus that we semi restored and I might be getting a 78 bus (k-jet BOOO!!). You should go to meanbugs dot com. Theirs lots of resources there, a freind of mine in Köping frequents there.

oh oh, thats not good!

My wife is going to be kicking my arse now, we are looking for an old bug. Ie: she is starting to learn to drive, and she wants one more than anything in the world .... ever!!

This is not good ;), i need to convince her of the merits of the Morris Minor :D

on another note though, just dont even think about it... Buy it!

its a left hooker mate, so it may not be suitable for Lou!!!!

ah righto, maybe not then .. you should deffinatly have it though!

I would imagine its not the hardest car to convert to RHD?

nah, dead simple to be honest, but i prefer LHD anyway
