The
September Feature
Volkswagen is a 1963 Standard Bug
that shows the healing power of restoring a
VW. Owner Tony writes, "In the summer of
1980 I got my first Volkswagen. It was a blue
1960 Baja Bug with a 1641 motor with a single
40 Webber. It was a street legal go-cart and
from that moment on I was hooked. Next
up was a 1955 Oval Window Beetle that was lowered
with 356 Porsche wheels, European bumpers grey,
mohair cloth interior and painted a cool turquoise
green, Grant GT steering wheel, one piece windows,
a total Cal Look Bug."

Another
vid from our friends at JBugs! JBugs
writes "Whether you’ve got a body
off restoration, a project in the works, or
just a nice daily driver you want to make sure
your Vintage VW is protected as much as possible.
We’re the same way so we’re installing
an onboard fire suppression system. Sure, it
may sound fancy and complicated but really,
the folks at BlazeCut came up with a brilliant,
simple to install system that really should
be in every engine compartment. Follow along
as we show how simple protecting your VW can
be."

This month we have a BRAND NEW article from
our favorite VolksPerson, VolksWoman!
Lois Grace writes, "Lots
of people restore cars. Not lots of women, but
lots of people. I happen to be a woman AND a
vintage Volkswagen freak, so I guess it's only
natural in view of this that my vintage truck
would eventually be restored. When I mention
how much fun I had doing this, I still get the
funny looks, the eyebrows-off-the-forehead reaction
from some. (Mostly men, I might add) What follows
are a few of the trials, tribulations, and fun
times I had with this project."
