Title: Super From Surrey
Post by: ArsenicPants on April 05, 2006, 03:30:18 PM
Hey guys
I drop by Air Speed quite a bit, figured i should post up my ride on the website
it's my first ACVW, bought it for a grand last summer, WAS a daily driver before i killed the motor on a long trip
so these are old photos, but it hasn't changed much

ya, it's a fat chick, but fat chicks still need love ;)

it's a '75, fresh '71 DP 1600, soon to get lowering struts and inserts, and hopefully some smart car tires
i hate that 4x4 nosebleed look

also, gonna paint it brown with lime green rims pretty soon
tired of the flat black/red age-old paint scheme

cheers guys :)

Supers are great drivers.
If you feel like a VW outsider go to Superbeetlesonly.com, they are good people :D
Where did you get the Speedo? I haven't seen a dual scale one before. Ha... ;)   just noticed the toothpick

Nothing wrong with a super dude.  As for the brown and green It a good combo That is what I was thinging of doing awhile back. But it ain't going to happen. What you should find is a set of stock wheels with the oval holes They look better painted than the sun bug rims . I also have a green here that would look better than lime green. You prep up some steelies bring em here I will spray them for free if you like the color.

And drop the front at least :mellow:
