Beetles don't have springs Bud


1303`s do.


Yeah but this isn't a 1303. Nowhere near. Can't really class a 1303 against this, horrible pieces of crap. New shape beetles have springs in that case.

The guys who are not just into corsas but dubs are going to like it. Fortunately I like both and think this dub is sweet. It's going to back to the whole rat sleeper scene, down and out, it's all you need. Haters gonna hate.

To do list:
* Fit lights
* Fit Bonnet
* Fix wipers
* Fix suspension
* Attach rear wheels
* Paint

After that, it will look cool.
Right now it just looks like something sat in barn for 20 years.

My point is that it looks broken/bodged suspension wise.

I'm barely into corsas anymore, I love beetles and splitties but this one is fucking terrible. If trashing a car can be classed as "working" on it then I'm glad I'm out of the modified scene.
It's just a knackered looking car with loads of bodywork missing. A small collection of people on the Internet will think its cool, 99.99% of people who see it will think youre a dole dosser who can't afford a decent motor.

I very much doubt that.

The "looks like shit" scene has been played out. No1 bums it anymore.

Proper dubheads would rip into that POS on page 1. People appreciate old skool beetle's when they look nice and clean, not rusting away.

Guy at my work loves his old beetle's, has a few of them, and even he would say that thing looks pants.

That chair holding the body up reminds me of homer simpson and the wicker basket and yes I do see the strap.

That would look so good with fresh paint and spotless chrome
