    Thank you. That was fun. It's in beautiful shape. It must be a joy to drive. I hope you take it out frequently.

      Thank you, I don’t drive it nearly as often as I should.

      @niche1740 love it. I got a 62 that's pretty close to being a daily. I'm looking for a carb and distributor that work good together. I'm looking forward to ripping around with a giant smile on my face.

    Had a 1967 Bug. So cool. Only minus the heater sucked!

      Well in California the heater is not a huge issue. Elsewhere, probably not that great.

      I will try to get you that video on the future. As to the color, the car was sold new in Beige but was painted “Texas State Trooper Blue”. Apparently the color State Trooper cars were painted in Texas at some point. Thanks for watching!!

    Is that a motometer gauge? Does it actually worK?

      Yes it is! Yes it does work. The gas reserve light is hooked to be a low charge light instead as the gas reserve never worked out

      @@niche1740 It's great! I never really took the time to look into the beetle colors - did they use same colors for both buses & beetles throughout the years? My favorite VW colors are Turkis & the Palm green/Sand Green.

    • @niche1740
      @niche1740  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Some colors are the same but most are unique either Beetle or Bus

      Haha, I knew someone would notice the speed. This is a Euro Oval. The speedo is in KILOMETERS 😂
