Got bored the other day so I went and snapped some pics of my weekend cruiser. These are all SOOC.

They are really good!

Clean car! I have grown to be a fan of VW's

I like #1 the most!

I think they're all really good.

I love the patto.

The patto is that little area behind the backseat. My brother and sister and I would argue over who got to sit in the patto (pronounced Pot-O).


Thank you. bw!

Thanks! The area behind the backseat is called the package tray, never heard patto, I learn something new everyday! And yeah VW's are a sickness...once you catch it, it'll always be in your system :cool:

You're right about the sickness. I had a tricked out '64 about 22 years ago. 1600cc punched out, balanced crankshaft, engle 110 cam, 043 heads, dual webers (ran better with the single holley 2 bbl) and a wild custom paint job I did myself and an interior that matched the paintjob on the outside. All I have left now is some poloroids somewhere and the memorys in my head.
I use to outrun stock Z-28's just off the showroom floor.

Yeah, people underestimate the quickness haha. I'm quick through 3rd but 4th is like a granny gear!

I used the 200 2.8L II.
