I picked up another Beetle today. It's a '76 Standard. Body is nice, nearly rust free, but, it had an engine fire so there is some scorched paint in the rear. Not 100% sure what I'm going to do with it yet. Any ideas? I think I wanna make it go fast in a straight line...

Sorry guys, pics will have to wait. No Internet at home, only what my phone can pull out of thin air, which isn't much...

So much for that little stock engine! The 1600 is still going in for now. The 2110 will be later. Did ya pick up the drysump system from Greg? Nope. Didn't know he had one for sale. |

So, this should be done for Liam, or Mia to drive? When they turn old enough.
