VW Beetles/Camper Vans

Post by [SD]Master_Wong »

Ofc i do mean the old ones before we go any further but i want to know who else shares my passion for them, the shape colours etc amaze me i love them so much so iv bought a vw beetle wizard 1972. my original plan was to paint it candy orange but people dont think thats a good colour for it, i want oppinions.

I also want to know who else likes or even owns a beetle or a camper van. got to love the split screen campers but shame they are so expensive.

I received these awesome beetle car toys when I was a kid. one was yellow with pink/purple flowers. the other one was white and racecar-ish. (kinda like herby) but with more colours.

You have a small frame of thinking and frankly it disgusts me.

Ontopic:

The answer is clear, Wong. You must and I repeat must paint it to resemble the mystery machine from scooby-doo. You can pick my up dressed as Velma and ready to go!

bit. they seem so much fun to tweak..

Pimp it, Big peace signs and flowers, a peace sign on the rear mirror, put some surfboards on the roof and drive the whole west coast. Cowebanga dude.

Or take Hostage's idea.

I know but wasn't the Mystery Machine a Volkswagen as well? If not I have to go rampage a certain someone with msn nudges for providing me with false knowledge! >:(....Also you can be Daphne! :wink:

@ZaKnight
I think cin put it best and simple. You don't get it.

EDIT:
Oh I didn't see Ice wanted to be Daphne, well you two will have to fight over it but remember--no nails.

beetles are old cars meaning most of their tweaking is done mechanically (or well,
all their tweaks are mechanical). this means its a lot of fun to work on if you
want to like take out an engine, swap around some suspension etc. a lot of people
want a beetle or an old vw van just for this. besides that there is a lot of fan
clubs and beetle/van lovers clubs and parts are easy to find and cheap to buy. if
you want you can put in a bigger engine, there's even beetles that have been turned
into hot rods. so yeah you can do all you want to it, by yourself and for
not a lot of money.

so that completely shows how little you know about cars lol.

thanks you kind of filled in all id say. because its old dont make it shit its not like a modern car where they all look the same going for that smooth rounded look its from a time where they made a car to stand out and have a unique look. It leaves it open to different paint styles and been old a lot of the things you can do on it have so its easier to tweak want a bigger engine you can put one in easily espesh been air cooled its not got a lot that can go wrong with the beetle or camper engines.

This car id like sprayed candy orange for me thats the perfect colour for it, or lime green.
