Mine was a '58 Beetle that I bought to hold me over for 2 months; I ended up driving him for 10 years. It was hard, but I got rid of Buggyboo to help buy and restore Buster over 13 years ago. Side note: my niece and nephew named the Beetle and my kids named my Bus.

Or do we even know where it's at? I know the first one I ever owned I destroyed. Much to my shagrin now, but back then it was a cheap inexpensive little 69 vw bug. I know they don't make them anymore but we all have to have our own life experiences.---mark singlecabboy <sealingwaxred@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: You let them get a few laps under belts before you get em the good stuff . --- Shelby Shook wrote: > If you go by that rule for too long there'll be no > classic cars left.
