You are definitely bringing this car back to life. I love every bit of it! BTW, when was that car show you were at? It had to have been recent because I see you have your multi-colored PKG sticker on the window...

This thread makes me want an old air-cooled bug SOOO bad. :drool:

[63ragtop]

It wasn't a car show, it was a poker run and that was today and a TON of fun.

Cool build thread! So is yours originally a harlequin?

I never knew that they made any other harlequin models other than the mk3 gti/jetta like the one I saw at treffen.

slam it, put some whitewalls on and your done :)

definitely coming along well man! Have fun with it!

[63ragtop]

No it's not originally harlequin, thats an ad from VW showing that you can put all different year parts onto a bug. But I love Harlequin Golfs/Rabbits!

i always like seing people bring cars back to life. but i was wondering, is that a bug truck on the far left? and i swear i saw on the carlounge some pictures taken by a guy with a cougar, old one late 60's, with your car in it or something in a simalar condition.

[63ragtop]

Yes that is a bug truck on the left. Also I'm sure it was posted on the car lounge my friend has a cougar and visits the car lounge often, and we did take pictures of them together.
