Far as we can tell, he's not divorced yet.
Where do guys find such tolerant women?

I wonder what mileage he gets....

I guess that's one way to keep people off your @$$ in traffic. And yet another to BBQ with at a tailgating party. :P Well, it has my approval, it's versatile! Although I'd pay to get pulled over in that thing...

Way cool... I love it. My very first car was a Beetle and I would have loved to put something like that back there. Heck, for tailgaters, you wouldn't even have to engage the afterburner, the normal jet exhaust would be hot enough to melt the plastic grins they use these days.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

Wow!! At least now you can tell which end of the car is which. Interesting though that the rest of the car seemed stock, I wonder if he uprated the brakes?

Brakes?! Give that poor Beetle what it has wanted. It's been deprived of any sense of speed for decades.
