Aloha,


 heres some updates from today, never get much pau on um today cause of the chain link work I did but alls good eh.  I get some ideas and it'll looks like the bugs gonna have a chain link theme to it, what you see is the begining of what I have plans for. I'm not gonna spill then beans on my idea but I'm hoping if everything works the way I think it will it will be very different then whats been seen when its all pau!!............ I think.

Once again Much Mahalo to Rob for me and his boys using his place to build the Bug while he was out of town and also helping me do my ideas I have for da front end of my bug.  Once its all pau Rob takes over and does his finishing touches.
 
The bug will be painted a bright silver with 20 inch deep dishes out back and 18's up front.
 .
 
 

 
 
 
 


 
 
photo shopped version (back windows, rims, and chained front end) taken last week.  I was hoping to get close to this look today

Now if there was just a way to put..say...a Porsche 3.0 turbo under the back end then things could be real interesting.

I've been all over the place to VW dub shows and I can honestly say I've never seen anything like it... Sic work! Makes me want another one...lol

thats insane. doesnt even look like a bug

i saw this somewhere before. looks good. but dont do big wheels. run porche alloys or something rat rod. keep the style of what it is. and, i think the headlights are a bit out of aim. lol.
