It seems every week i see a new colour that would look hot on the car, but saying that, it will be green, possibly with metalic in it and lots of clear.  It will also have eagle chrome 5 spoke wide 5's, body dropped very close to the ground.  As for power well something big, there is not a lot of VW's on this part of the island.  So I would like to be able to surprise those brats in their hondas and 5.0's not to mention the sunfires which seem to be popular with a certain group here.  Anyway I am sure as the project progresses i will nead to draw on the experience and advice of the club members.

Thanks Woodsy

Well how quickly things change in a year...I have recently takin an apprenticeship in Northern Alberta.  At this point the bug is on hold and stored for a little bit until I can find space and time to get it up here.  I have seen one bug on the back of a flat deck and thats about it.  It will be a bit harder to get things and help up here but will be one of a kind once its done.
