Hello everyone.
I'm new here from the Souf of Johannesburg. Looking to learn a lot
Some pics of my rides
The Beemer
Then I got my Corsa OPC
Did intake, software , downpipe + exhaust , cooler.
Made 154wkw and 330nm at KAR
Really pissed at myself for selling it.
Then I bought this
And now.... The reason why I'm on here
Im loving the bug. It has so much character. Respray will be om the cards ASAP. My end goal is a Class 11 look alike daily / toy.

Re: 75 Baja Bug
Welcome. Cool pics....
*holding back from beemer comments*
The Baja looks like its in good condition. Maybe someday it will rival the Ford offroad??

Re: 75 Baja Bug
Saw you loading it, was in the silver Audi at the time. That car really does look nice, best body kit in my eyes. Nice one.
From fastest to slowest:
Birkin race car, not much is standard
Lotus Elise 111R, almost everything is standard
'75 SP 1600 with a few mods
B8 A4 Avant tdi, towing made easy

Re: 75 Baja Bug
Thanks for all the comments.
So since owning it I put a helicoil in and its been 200%. Then I just got stuck to side of the road. No spark. Hit the coil and off I went. Haha. Eventually changed the coil and rewired as the wiring is up to sh!t. There is rust on the pan and doors etc. so I think the respray will be on the cards first. I got a few quotes already and looks good.
Then I want to change the interior. Im not a fan at all. If someone is interested let me know
