looks pretty good!

A little bit our there but I like it.

if i had it painted, that would not be my color choice, but i gotta admit i like it. i wouldnt have lowered it like it is either, but it can be reversed. the rear is sitting on the stops (that made for some interesting bouncing at 65 going over rough overpasses..LOL) i dont mind the 1600. yeah, its slower than dirt, but i dont  mind. i dont take it anywhere if im in a hurry. i never realized how much fun buses were to drive and own. the guy i bought it from said he could have the engine sitting on the ground in 20 minutes flat. im gonna test that theory soon as i have to replace the oil cooler seals. anyways, all opinions are welcome, favorable or non favorable.

yeah, maintainance is one of the many advantages of owning any acvw.  you break down in your corolla, youre screwed. break down in a bug or bus, get out the electrical tape and pliers and your back on the road in 30..LOL.  that was another reason for getting this 71, i was already familiar with the type 1.

65dunebuggy,
  the paint isnt that good in person. the way you see it is the way i bought it. i gave 3k for it.  i pulled engine to replace those seals and found i have bout an 1/8th inch endplay, so im prepping case to go to machine shop for alignboring. while he is in there, might as well go for some 90.5s and full flow.
