1954 Oval Bug

Yesterday I made a testdrive with this 1954 Oval Bug. Everything is original and works fine. But I think it would work and look much better, if you slam and rim it. And ofcourse you have to change the original 30HP engine!


Very, very dark green paint:

Good looking interior:

Fresh rebuild 30HP engine:

Tight Squeeze 2

Just imagine you get a nice model of a hotrod Karmann Ghia. And you are so impressed that you want to build it in real.
And than imagine you are running your own Hot Rod business and you have a V10 engine of a Viper lying around....
You will not be the first with this nice idea:
The guys of www.deanzrodzandracecarz.com
are already deep into this project. Take a look!!

'Alle drei von bester Rasse'

This weekend I visited my brother in Wiesbaden (Germany). A very nice city, with lots of old buildings, but only a few old cars driving around.

This was the only old Volkswagen that I've seen there:


But I found this handpainted old advertising for a local VW-Dealer,


including the very nice headline: 'Alle drei von bester Rasse'

('All three from the best breed')
