my 1975 delux vw beetle (fat chick)

Damn how fast is that thing?
Woulda liked it better in speed yellow though ;)

yuppers, it sure is a bug. Anything that makes it more special than the other 21 million that were made? I am no bug expert so I was just wondering.

Nice! Looks almost like my old bagged '73 Super.

looks cool, id stick a transformers sticker/emblem on it ^^

sooo clean....
