1971 Pink Beetle from Plainwell, MI

[ladyoftheflowers]

Hello all, my name is Christina and I own a 1971 pink and white beetle. My husband, father-in-law and I did all the work on it last summer. She used to be pumpkin orange with all black interior. My husband and his father were muscle car men but I've recently brought them over to our side when his dad bought a 1969 beetle.

Hi Christina....your '71 is nicely done. What a transformation from the orange.

So, is your father-in-law's Beetle pink too?

Before we painted it pink, my husband and I would argue over who was driving because he thought it was so much fun to drive. I fixed that problem

I'll bet you did!

I sold an '84 Corvette when I bought my '70 Beetle (I was looking for something to tinker with). My 14 yr old son was disappointed, saying that VW stood for Very Womanly (I guess he had his eye on the Vette!).

I'll have to show him your Beetle, so he has a better feel for my Orange/Gray car vs. the pink one above. Thanks...you helped me in a big way.

Looks like somebody is getting out of the game. $7900 it must be nice.

It is a beautiful car. Too bad they are selling.
